Summary

My name is Thomas Luft. I am a freelance consulting engineer. I am a passionate product developer with a focus on quality. I am a graduate engineer, certified moderator, Agile Master and Product Owner. I moderate Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) workshops and support development teams in organizing and developing FMEAs according to the latest standards. My moderation uses “Agile” methods, human-centered, entertaining and with the help of whiteboards. Online as well as hybrid and offline. Inexperienced participants are coached at the same time in “what” and “how”. Together with you, I successfully (re-)introduce FMEA and supervise the optimization of the processes. The FMEA will be compliant with the rules but will be created quickly and effectively by means of proven systematics, so that errors in your products and in your production are detected and avoided at an early stage. At the same time, the participants get a better understanding of their own product and communicate across departments. You can always take profit from the automotive/mechatronics experience of your moderator. Are you on the way to "Agile"? Let's link FMEA and Agile Project Management and complement each other. A consistent, true and complete FMEA with a focus on effectiveness is not only part of standards in the automotive industry and medical technology, it’s the perfect complement to your quality processes, risk management, start-up optimization, increased effectiveness and efficiency for you and your suppliers. With the help of standardized FMEAs (family and mother FMEAs or templates), you establish a knowledge store for continuous improvement. As an interim manager, I lead teams in mechanical development and quality planning in the field of automotive interiors with and without personnel responsibility. I can draw on 23 years of experience in this field. Companies in the manufacturing industry, automotive suppliers, from Tier one to SMEs and manufacturers of mechatronic devices benefit from my wealth of experience.
