In industrial production and test engineering environments, the documentation and categorization of recurring failures is essential for: Improving process efficiency Increasing product reliability Reducing rework and waste Supporting sustainable corrective and preventive actions Knowing how to correctly classify failures allows attacking the root of problems and building a virtuous cycle
KPIs (Key Performance Indicators), or Key Performance Indicators, are metrics used to monitor and evaluate the performance of industrial processes, quality tests, production lines, and even technical teams. They allow for data-driven decisions, identify bottlenecks, optimize processes, and ensure continuous improvement — one of the pillars of success in modern
The FPY (First Pass Yield), or First Pass Yield, is a fundamental indicator of efficiency and quality of a testing or production process. It measures the percentage of units that pass the test on the first attempt, without the need for rework, repetition, or correction. Why is FPY important? FPY
