You are required to answer ONE of the following questions using an essay style format. In all
cases, use the academic literature and practical examples to support your answer.
1. Explain how FMEA could be integrated into an environmental management system to

alternatives?

Notes:
• The assignment should be between 2,000 and 2,500 words in length.
• The assignment should include references to relevant literature (i.e. more than just the
main textbook and information available from websites that have not been subjected to
rigorous verification). A minimum of 10 academic references is required.
• All assignments should be properly referenced using an appropriate style. The Harvard
system is recommended as being straightforward and easy to use.
