  1. Managing Environmental Aspects An Integrated FMEA Approach

  2. Why do we Assess Risk? • It’s our job • Ensure compliance • Protect our assets • Balance our concerns • Drive improvement

  3. Why Integrate? • Incorporate risk as part of “big picture” • Common tools provide for: • Decreased Training Needs • Increased Skill • Improved Interaction • More Eyes = More Opportunities for Improvement

  4. When we don’t integrate… • Conflicting information in different areas • We risk focusing on trees instead of the forest • We may initiate projects with conflicting goals • We may find ourselves competing for vital resources

  5. Goals for this Session: • Identify potential environmental impacts using a process approach • Analyze environmental risks in light of multiple business objectives • Define appropriate control measures • Formulate strategic improvement projects

  6. Borrowing from the Quality Toolbox • “Go with the flow”- process flow diagrams • Find the flaws - FMEA • Create a game plan - SOPs, etc. • Summarize Controls - Control Plan • Reduce Risk - CI Process …Review & Repeat!

  7. Process Flow Diagrams • What do we have? (inputs) • Where/Why? (process) • What’s left? (outputs, waste) • How do we control? • Who do we train? • How can we reduce?

  8. Assess the Risk - FMEA • Lay out the process steps • Identify hazards and effects for each action • Assess the risk = Severity / Probability • Summarize Controls • Prioritize Actions - the power of FMEA

  9. Karen’s Kwik Lube Welcome to the Kwik Lube Krew! • Your job today will be to: • Map the Kwik Lube process • Identify potential environmental impacts • Assess their various risks • Draft a game plan for improvement Let’s Begin…

  10. All inputs captured (information, materials, tools, equipment) All steps clear All outputs captured (final product, information, wastes) The cross-functional model Process Map - Reminders

  11. Identifying Hazards/Aspects • Aspects can include any solid, liquid or gas added to, used in, created by, or left over as the result of a process that has the potential to impact the environment • Aspects must include elements that may not be under our direct control, but over which we can be expected to have an influence (e.g., work of contractors, etc.). • Consider plans for process changes and improvements

  12. Identifying Effects/Impacts Impacts May Include: • emissions to air • releases to water or land • use of raw materials or natural resources • use/emission of energy • creation of waste Safety would include motion, energy, chemicals, etc.

  13. Severity

  14. Severity - Other Elements

  15. Severity - Other Elements

  16. Probability

  17. Risk = S x P

  18. Controls • Controlling Conditions • Engineering Controls • Pre-treatment Systems • Housekeeping • Controlling Behavior • Controlled Practices (SOPs, Work Instructions) • Training & Communication • Behavior Modification

  19. Control

  20. RPN • Risk Prioritization Number • S x P x C • Multiplication helps stratify hazards • Relative Measure of Risk - relies on: • Well-defined criteria • Consistent Application

  21. Determining Significance • Define the criteria • Severity • Risk • Avoid “lines in the sand” • Continual improvement should drive change

  22. How can we improve? • Focus on THE PROCESS • Modify process to change or eliminate step • Reduce Severity • Reduce Probability • Institute or Improve Control • Use ALL the tools - P2, Lean, 6-sigma, 5-S Ideas??

  23. Integration • Cross-functional Approach • Adding Safety • Adding Quality • Process versus Product • Continual Improvement Programs

  24. Questions?? kmreaume@worthingtonindustries.com
