The company "ABC Makers Ltd." is applying a typical Failure Mode and Effect Analysis, and they consider that all failure modes with a Risk Priority Number less than 105 are failure modes for which no further action is required. Under these assumptions, if a failure mode is consider to have a "Severity" index equal to 8 and an "Occurrence" index equal to 9, what is the maximum value of the "Detection" index for which no further action would be required?

The company "ABC Makers Ltd." is applying a typical Failure Mode and Effect
Analysis, and they consider that all failure modes with a Risk Priority Number less
than 105 are failure modes for which no further action is required. Under these
assumptions, if a failure mode is consider to have a "Severity" index equal to 8 and
an "Occurrence" index equal to 9, what is the maximum value of the "Detection"
index for which no further action would be required?
Regardless of the value for the "Detection" index, the RPN for this failure mode
will always be above the set threshold.
