Abstract This study consists in testing the method of Analysis of Failure Modes of their Effects and Criticality (FMECA) on the maintenance of equipment of small agri-food processing units in Burkina Faso. The maintenance of the said equipment still in the traditional stage, is carried out by several networks of maintenance actors with an informal organization. Thirteen players in the maintenance network of a cotton seed press were brought together to carry out the experiment. At the end of the test, it appears that the criticality indices do not have the same perception as those of a large, well structured company. For these small units, the priority is access to on site spare parts at an affordable cost. In addition, discussions have shown that reliability and maintainability are not a major concern for equipment users.
