The Cymapp® Framework:
Cymapp® mapping process is not based with just any common standard:
it is a proprietary method that translates process knowledge into an operational tool and enables the prevention of errors before they occur.
Cymapp® doesn’t simply map the risk,
It models and controls the entire production process
Knowledge Management System and Quality Management System
Cymapp® is a Knowledge Management System developed to detect potential causes of non-conformance in the production process.
It is a risk analysis and control system that meets the criteria outlined in the Quality Risk Management guidelines ICH Q9.
The Knowledge Management System can be perfectly integrated into any Quality
Management System: it enhances its capabilities by facilitating the processes of analysis and
root cause research for damage.
Process Mapping: The Foundation of Risk Management
The value of Cymapp® lies not only in the visualization method but even in the construction method of the mappings that form the foundation of the Knowledge Management System.
It is based on a relational and incremental database (IDEF0 method), different from those
commonly found on the market, which are primarily used as descriptors for decision-making
or documentation processes: Cymapp® allows for identifying and managing possible “failure
causes” within processes.
The mapping highlights the relationships between causes and potential damage to the product, ensuring that there are no uncontrolled process variables that could impact the quality of the final product.
Objective Risk Assessment
Cymapp® overcomes one of the main limitations of the traditional approach to risk analysis : the knowledge being distributed and fragmented, stemming from the experience and skills of each team member within the client’s organization.
It drastically reduces subjectivity in risk assessment:
It extracts, structures and centralizes all critical knowledge, ensuring that it is necessary and sufficient to guarantee the correct functioning of the final product.- It uniquely assigns severity (error impact) to the final event and probability (frequency of error occurrence), guiding decisions objectively on which risks should be mitigated and which can be tolerated.

The incremental and traceable nature of Cymapp®
- Allows for continuous model updates, ensuring consistency and effectiveness all over the lyfe-cycle of the process.
- Ensures constant monitoring of risk evolution over time, even in dynamic
environments with frequent process changes.

Automation in Risk Management: FMEA as an Operational Tool
Cymapp® overcomes one of the limitations of the traditional FMEA implementation method by identifying and structuring all necessary information for risk analysis during the mapping implementation phase.
- It automatically generates the FMEA in a structured and complete way, transforming the mapping into FMEA rows and creating a direct link to process knowledge.
- It allows for automatically assigning severity for each potential local damage in a consistent and automated way, reflecting the severities assigned to the final product.
