Risk Prioritization Strategy

Classifies failure modes into High/Medium/Low action priority using severity-weighted S/O/D scoring.

Method

1. Collect S/O/D scores from upstream FMEA analysis
2. action-priority-matrix applies AIAG-VDA Action Priority logic:
   • H (High): Mandatory action required — severity >= 8, or combined S*O >= 36
   • M (Medium): Action recommended — moderate risk combinations
   • L (Low): Optional action — acceptable risk level
3. Rank all failure modes by priority class, then by RPN within class
4. Feed H-priority items to mitigation-design strategy

Budget Table

Parameter	S	M	L
Failure modes classified	8	20	40
Priority threshold tuning	fixed	1 round	2 rounds
Sensitivity analysis	none	top-5	full

Orchestration

[S/O/D scores from upstream] → action-priority-matrix
  → priority-ranked failure catalog
  → [H-priority items] → mitigation-design

Subagents

• action-priority-matrix (RPN computation and H/M/L classification)
• severity-scoring (re-evaluation if needed)

Available Tactics

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

Tactic	When to use
premortem-to-fmea-pipeline	Tactic: Pre-mortem rapid screening feeds high-risk items into full FMEA analysis. Bridges fast intuitive generation with systematic structured analysis.

Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

SOP	When to use
action-priority-matrix	Compute Risk Priority Number (RPN = S x O x D), classify failure modes into H/M/L action priority per AIAG-VDA tables.
severity-scoring	Rate failure mode severity 1-10 based on end-effect impact. Follows AIAG-VDA severity scale calibrated for research artifacts.
