FMEA EXPERT LTD

What FMEA EXPERT LTD does

FMEA Excellence is an AI-powered SaaS platform developed by DigitaLLeather d.o.o., a Serbian technology company headquartered in Kragujevac (with FMEA EXPERT LTD registered in Rugby, United Kingdom). The platform targets high-reliability and safety-critical manufacturing — primarily automotive Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 suppliers — and provides a structured workspace for PFMEA, DFMEA, Process Flow Diagrams, and Control Plans that stay interconnected through cross-document updates. Its core workflow is built around the AIAG/VDA 7-Step methodology and supports documentation required for IATF 16949 compliance, replacing spreadsheet-based FMEA reviews with a connected, auditable, continuously updated workspace.

The product is differentiated by an AI layer that uses large language models trained on domain-specific FMEA datasets to suggest failure modes, causes, controls, and actions, augmented by a knowledge chatbot, smart field completion, and English-Serbian multilingual translation. Beyond classical RPN scoring, the platform adds strategic, financial, and time-based risk prioritization, and integrates with ERP systems to ingest PPM, scrap, rework, and complaint data for automatic FMEA updates. The underlying vendor holds ISO 9001:2015 quality certification and an ISO/IEC 27001:2022 aligned information security management system, and offers on-premise and private-cloud deployment for enterprise buyers.

FMEA Excellence operates a three-tier annual subscription model (Traditional, Excellence, Enterprise) with a free trial on the mid-tier and custom enterprise pricing that includes dedicated account management, custom Active Directory / PLM / QMS integrations, and tailored onboarding. The go-to-market combines a consultative, demo-driven direct sales motion for enterprise accounts (with Calendly-based booking and named sales contact David Sokolovic), inside-sales/free-trial paths for mid-market production teams, content-led marketing through an educational blog, and active participation in automotive conferences, EU-supported events, and the StartSmart SEE Accelerator 2026 program to build European visibility and investor readiness. The company is preparing a EUR 300,000 pre-seed round and has a small founder-led team of approximately six people combining domain FMEA expertise with frontend, backend, DevOps, and ML engineering.
