Tolerance specification communicates the allowance for part variation. Variation happens, and when it is within what we expect, great.

Fundamentals of Design for Reliability
podcast episode with speaker Fred Schenkelberg
DFR has been a term in and out of fashion for some time one of the many DFX type programs. DFR, unlike some of the other Design for X programs, has to exist within the overall culture of the organization to be successful. The premise that design occurs at the point of decision implies that each design may have the appropriate information to consider the decision's impact on reliability performance properly.
Also, remember that decisions outside the design and development team impact reliability performance. Your organization’s marketing, finance, and supply chain elements make decisions that, too, impact how a product is perceived, funded, or created.
DFR is a way to think, consider, and decide to create a product that meets both business and customer reliability expectations. It is not a set of tools or tests. It is a way of getting things done.
This Accendo Reliability webinar originally broadcast on 11 May 2021.
