However, NPD requires an accurate risk assessment to assign the resources and optimise them during the process. This document aims to introduce a modified FMEA method used in combination with Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP) and Dimensional Analysis (DA), offering an accurate risk assessment.

Additionally, this document contains a practical example of an NPD project to validate the proposed method
