FMEA action follow-up: a key element of the approach

- Track action progress: The software lets you track the progress of each action, from planning to implementation to validation.
- Relay managers: An e-mail notification system automatically relaunches action managers and ensures that deadlines are met.
- Measure the effectiveness of actions: Skill FMEA Pro enables you to measure the impact of corrective actions on risk reduction and continuously improve your processes.
