The document discusses the new AIAG & VDA FMEA Handbook, which standardizes Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) processes between the automotive industry associations. It overviews the motivation to align VDA and AIAG FMEA standards, which caused confusion for suppliers. The new handbook introduces a standardized seven-step FMEA process and aligns evaluation tables and other aspects. It will be published in June 2019, and VDA QMC will offer training on the new FMEA standard after publication.
