Analysis type An analysis type is a collection of preferred settings for strategy development analysis. The settings range from specifying how analysis titles are defaulted, to how avoidance savings are recorded on failure modes, to how risk analysis is performed (if at all), to whether analyses must be sent for approval. Selecting an analysis type on an analysis quickly ensures that its settings are correct and consistent with your organization’s standards. When defining an analysis type, you can specify the kinds of analysis it can be used with: MTA2, RCM2, RBI, CPR, SIF, HAZOP, Design FMECA, or a combination. For example, you could create two types for MTA2, one with risk analysis and one without. Or you could create a type that applies to both MTA2 and RBI analyses. See Also Study SDA study associated with the analysis. Study references are used to group, filter, and order analyses. See Also Reference Reference information required by the organization or the analysis, for example, the reference number for an external document. See Also Planned start Planned start date for the analysis. If the analysis was created when an analysis request was processed, the Requested Start Date is copied from the request. See Also Planned completion Expected completion date for the analysis. If the analysis was created when an analysis request was processed, the Requested Completion Date is copied from the request. See Also Comment Comment provided for a status change. Parent template If you wish to organize your MTA templates in a hierarchy, select a parent template. The parent template does not have to describe the same asset type as the template you are creating. For example, you could gather templates for different types of pump assets into a hierarchy for all pumps. See Also Hierarchy parent Parent FMECA in the hierarchy.
