Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System (FRACAS) A simple google search yields many links. There are many vendors providing such a system.
I found dthe Isograph one. If we are talking about equipment failures, these should be captured inside CMMS. I think this FRACAS is a similar to Meridium asset performance software. Basically they are data analysis softwares which can be interfaced and added on to CMMS.
Failure reporting and corrective action method used by the military.
From the Relex.com website:
quote:
Failure Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action Systems (FRACAS) provide a framework for controlling corrective action processes. The FRACAS process may also be referred to as DRACAS (Data Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System), or PRACA (Problem Reporting, Analysis, and Corrective Action System), as well as CA (Corrective Action) systems, and other acronyms. At its core, FRACAS is a comprehensive closed-loop corrective action system which enables you to collect, quantify, and control a wide range of incoming incident reports, such as test data, field data, or repair data. A FRACAS aims to control the process to ensure that product reliability and quality objectives are met. Relex ® FRACAS provides a comprehensive framework which supports a broad range of process management methods based on individual needs and requirements.

Thanks to wikipedia now I know, in PR it is called Mitsubishi Montero and it is a very popular SUV. Also, a model called Montero Nativa was marketed later, the Nativa is the Pajero Sport.
ReliaSoft also has a FRACAS system called XFRACAS. ReliaSoft’s XFRACAS (formerly known as QTMS) is a Web-based, closed-loop, incident (failure) reporting, analysis and corrective action software system (FRACA / FRACAS) designed for the acquisition, management and analysis of product reliability, quality and safety data from multiple sources, along with the management of problem resolution activities.
The XFRACAS software system provides a complete array of FRACA / FRACAS / DRACAS, team-based problem solving and related activities. This Web-based FRACAS is highly configurable, allowing you to customize the system to meet your organization's particular needs - no custom programming required. An introduction to some of the features can be found at http://www.reliasoft.com/xfracas/features.htm.
I hope this helps.

Forum members may also be interested in another FACAS system known as Reliability Incident Management System. RIMSys. Details of this and a demo can be found at the following url
GM had a similar problem to Ford and Mitsubishi in Spanish-speaking areas. The Chevy named Nova was a little to close to...No Va! or basically, "It won't Go!
