Department of Defense developed a qualitative method named Failure-Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) to identify potentially error-prone systems and process vulnerabilities (Gershengorn‚ Kocher & Factor‚ 2014). Initially‚ this method was applicable in critical industries such as aeronautics and atomic power plants. Since 2001‚ it has been adopted by service industries like healthcare organizations to evaluate process failures and improve patient safety. This proactive risk-assessment
