Maintenance Error Investigation using MEDA
All EASA Part 145 approved organisations are required to have Maintenance Error Management System (MEMS). This is a formal system for investigating serious errors to determine the root causes and implement measures to prevent re-occurrence. This coursse covers the use of the Boeing developed Maintenance Error Decision Aid, MEDA, to standardise the conduct of investigating and reporting such errors.
MEDA is a tool for investigating the factors that contribute to maintenance errors. The MEDA process provides thorough and consistent investigations, determining factors that lead to an event and making improvements to reduce the likelihood of future incidents. Maintenance errors cost millions of dollars each year in rework, on-time performance and lost revenue, and have the potential to present hazards to safety. The MEDA process assists maintenance organisations to identify why these events occur and how to prevent them in the future.
