Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action

ReliaSoft XFRACAS is a highly configurable, web-based Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Action System (FRACAS). Depending on how you configure your implementation, this can include incident/failure reporting, failure analysis on returned parts, part tracking for serialized systems, root cause analysis, team-based problem resolution and tracking the completion of assigned actions. The software can be integrated with other ReliaSoft applications, which provides intelligent integration between reliability program activities and tools while simultaneously facilitating effective information sharing and cooperation between engineering teams of any size.

Discover what makes XFRACAS the complete platform for incident and corrective action process management

Build a "knowledge base" of lessons learned that can be shared throughout the organization and across multiple sites, suppliers, and customers. Understand the root cause and prevent similar issues.

Use data from XFRACAS for life data analysis or repairable system/reliability growth analysis in Weibull++. Share system configuration and failure modes data between XFRACAS and XFMEA / RCM++.

Bridge the gap between addressing individual failures and managing efforts to understand, contain and resolve the underlying problems with XFRACAS' closed-loop process.

Match XFRACAS to your internal processes, and refine them as they evolve. Leverage the flexibility of XFRACAS to scale and make changes within your organization, as well as share the essentials across business units.

Achieve design improvements, faster product release, better service, and enhanced customer satisfaction with XFRACAS.

Manage your products and processes, track your failures and returns, escalate incidents, and implement a corrective action system to prevent reoccurrences and improve performance.

Reliability data analysis with XFRACAS

The incident reporting process in XFRACAS can result in clean, usable data for reliability analysis in ReliaSoft desktop applications. You can easily use the failure data to perform reliability analysis with ReliaSoft Weibull++ software to spot trends, assess the situation before issues become larger problems, and proactively make product corrective plans. If XFRACAS data entry is based on fully serialized systems, you can extract complete time-to-failure and suspension data by system, subsystem and component.

Connect XFRACAS with XFMEA and SEP

Closing the loop between your FMEA and FRACAS can be very beneficial for all your future design revisions and products. With ReliaSoft XFMEA, you can synchronize the generic system configurations, use FMEA to define the failure modes that can be assigned to incidents, problems or failure analysis reports or use failure modes defined in XFRACAS as input to your FMEA.

You can deploy ReliaSoft SEP on the same database and web server as XFRACAS. When implemented together, SEP links to the FRACAS records assigned to you, and enables FMEA teams to review relevant field failure reports for the parts they are analyzing.

FRACAS (Failure Reporting Analysis and Corrective Action System or Defect Report and Corrective Action System) is one of several commonly used acronyms for a system that is used to report failures and track the corrective actions. Other commonly used names include DRACAS (Data Reporting Analysis and Corrective Action System), DCACAS (Data Collection Analysis and Corrective Action System) and CAPA software (Corrective And Preventive Action software).

The XFRACAS tool is utilized within GE Aviation to run Flight Safety related items across all of the programs to maintain compliance with the US Government.
