Simulation-Aware FMEA Analysis

Overview

BKOAI’s developed a simulation-aware FMEA system that combines Deep Search Agents with the Agent-as-a-Service (AaaS) framework to make risk analysis adaptive and data-driven

Challenge

Traditional FMEA processes are limited by:

  • Static knowledge bases — updates require manual entry and are often delayed.
  • Sequential analysis — investigations follow a fixed path, slowing decision-making.
  • Lack of data integration — simulation results, maintenance logs, and sensor data remain disconnected.
  • Reactive response — failure analysis occurs after the event rather than anticipating it.

Solution

BKOAI’s simulation-aware FMEA system uses a parallel, multi-agent architecture to analyze multiple data sources simultaneously. An Orchestrator Agent breaks a query into sub-tasks for:

  • Graph Agent: Retrieves documented failure causes and effects from the FMEA database.
  • Document Agent: Extracts relevant conditions from manuals and reports using semantic search.
  • Log Agent: Reviews maintenance histories to find recurring failure patterns.
  • Predictive Agent: Runs ML models on live sensor data to estimate failure probability.

A Synthesizer Agent then combines all findings into a unified analysis that blends structured knowledge, real-world data, and live predictions.

Key Benefits

  • Dynamic Adaptation: The system continuously learns from new data and simulation results.
  • Faster Decision-Making: Parallel agents operate simultaneously, reducing analysis time dramatically.
  • Integrated Intelligence: Combines historical, operational, and predictive insights into one coherent workflow.
  • Proactive Reliability: Moves FMEA from reactive reporting to forward-looking risk prevention.
