Fundamentals of Reliability Performance Monitoring Monitoring reliability performance requires both measurement and reporting skills. Focusing on making decisions, we can tailor our metrics to improve our reliability program today. The right measures allow your team to spot problems and solve them. Your customers measure the reliability of your products every time they use your product. The measure is often ad hoc and creates an experienced-based impression of your product's reliability. If you want to improve your customer's impression of your product's reliability, you have to understand and monitor the reliability performance of your product. Some reliability measures are forward-looking, and some look back at what has occurred. None are perfect, yet many are useful for specific situations or classes of decisions. If the cost of unreliability is of concern, creating estimates of expected repairs and spares may provide insights into the current design decisions. Tracking the actual occurrence of repairs along with spare use provides feedback on your estimation process, plus helps you identify unexpected usage, possibly signaling a previously unknown problem to solve. Let's explore a range of reliability and maintainability measures, including when and how they can help you solve problems and improve your product and program.

A Review of the 2018 ASQ CRE Body of Knowledge The new CRE body of knowledge goes into effect in January 2018. With the additions, deletions, and changes to topics, it attempts to reflect what reliability engineering does daily. Let's closely examine the new 2018 BOK and what it means. With 13 topics partially or fully removed (like tolerance analysis and derating), in part, the new BOK suggested a smaller role in the design for reliability process. Some topics are good to see diminished, especially those that reinforce MTBF use. On the other hand, the additional topics, such as leadership responsibility, are long overdue. While other additions, such as the quality triangle, make me wonder what inspired that vague topic. The new emphasis on risk management is in line with the sweeping change in ISO standards, so it was expected. Let's talk about the changes, including: What it means for those preparing for the exam, What does the emphasis on risk management mean for our day-to-day work and What it suggests about the discipline of reliability engineering in today's world. As always, an engaging and interactive discussion.

An Introduction, Basic Definitions, and Overview of a Risk Management Framework Risk is borne from uncertainty. The reliability performance of your product line and individual products is uncertain. Identifying and understanding the risks involved helps your team mitigate reliability performance risks. An obvious risk and common question when developing a new product involves the field failure rate. If the failure rate is too high, it may dissuade customers from buying the product. If too low, we assign funds unnecessarily to cover unrealized warranty expenses. We use a range of reliability engineering tasks to uncover, understand, and prioritize the reliability risks facing an organization. The failure rate is one issue, and so is safety. The portfolio of risk involving reliability starts with what will fail, when, and how. Then expands to include cost, time to market, supply chain, and customer satisfaction topics. Let's discuss the range of reliability-driving risks your organization should address beyond just concerning the failure rate. Let's discuss how decisions made during the design process impact reliability and the associated risks to an organization. Let's discuss risk management and reliability engineering, plus introduce a risk management framework. This Accendo Reliability webinar originally broadcast on 8 Aug 2017.

Enhancing Reliability Integration into the Product Development Process One of the more significant challenges for reliability engineering in product development is the complete execution of the planned reliability process in product development. The reliability tools and techniques outlined in the product plan are often skipped or delayed, minimizing the opportunity for outputs to fully impact the program and product. This contrast between planning and execution does not occur equally with product plan goals such as time to market, developed technical features, and product cost points. Each is closely measured in development and has a strong presence when the resource is re-negotiated during the program. Specific considerations must be made for reliability due to its more complicated nature to measure performance and improve towards the target. This webinar and a continuing collaborative group will study these product development challenges for reliability and drive to develop long-term solutions. A collaborative group will be launched after the webinar. This group will be focused on continuing the discussion around methodologies to improve the implementation of DfR in the product development process. The group will meet once a month online and continuously communicate through a private forum. The group will contribute significantly to building case studies and providing input on applied methods and proposed strategies. It will be a great place for all members to receive support and share their experiences while being a major contributor to this new progression of the reliability discipline. You are invited to join and share your experience and ideas. This Accendo Reliability webinar originally broadcast on 26 July 2017.

An Introduction, Basic Uses, and Examples of How RBD Calculations Work A reasonable model helps you make informed decisions. A simple reliability block diagram often provides the insights your team needs to prioritize and achieve the desired reliability performance. Let's create, populate, and use RBDs effectively. RBDs comprise a few simple elements and arrangements yet can describe a wide range of products and systems. There are a few assumptions to remember and a few basic ways to create a useful model for your system. Let's discuss the elements that make up a useful reliability model and how you can craft a model to get you and your team started talking about reliability. Drawing the model is one step. Populating the RBD with reliability targets is another. Adding reliability estimates brings power to the model. The RBD model is just a model. It allows you and your team to identify reliability improvement priorities, focus resources where they will make the most difference, and permit tracking of reliability progress toward a goal. The model itself is not the objective, as with many reliability tools. It's what you do with the model that matters. Let's discuss a few best practices for effective use of your RBD model.

An Introduction, Basic Steps, and Examples of How ALT Goes Wrong Accelerated Life Testing, ALT, is a technique to estimate an item’s time to failure-pattern. In short, ALT allows us to shorten time. Done well, it provides valuable insights into the future. Done poorly, it is a colossal waste of resources. In this webinar, let's talk about the various methods available to you for ALT. Select the right approach, given your understanding of the failure mechanism involved. And discuss the best and a few worst practices when planning and conducting ALT. As with any testing, ALT is an experiment. We have a hypothesis, and using the test result may verify or disprove the hypothesis. A well-designed test helps you make decisions and informs you about the nature of the failure mechanism's time-to-failure behavior. Done poorly, ALT provides little more than a pass / fail result with an inability to interpret the results or understand how the failure mechanisms behave over time. Let's discuss ALT, the many options available as you plan your next experiment, and why you should focus on understanding the failure mechanism involved.

An Introduction, Basic Steps, and Examples of How HALT Goes Wrong HALT promises to find the weaknesses in your design early in the design process. Understanding the basic concepts underlying HALT enables you to do so effectively. Let's discuss this essential discovery tool and how it fits into your program. I call HALT (highly accelerated life test) the second worst acronym in the field of reliability engineering. HALT is not a test because your product can pass' the test. Getting failures is the hallmark of a successful HALT. The idea that you can use single and combined stresses to ferret out faults in a product is a simple concept. The ability to go beyond expected operating stress levels and provide your team with meaningful information is key. A failure is a failure, and finding them is the first step in removing or mitigating the consequence of those failures. Let's discuss the basic idea of HALT, how to explain the purpose and expected outcomes, and a few best practices you can use today to improve your HALT program.

Creating an Effective Reliability Plan Writing and executing effective reliability plans is a skill that is not often taught in reliability courses or seminars. It falls under the body of knowledge of reliability management, which is a different set of skills than reliability engineering. What is a Reliability Plan, and how should it be developed? What do well-written reliability tasks look like? How detailed should tasks be described, and how can they be written to support easy execution? How do you ensure that your Reliability Plan is successfully implemented to the desired results? Many practitioners list the tools that must be performed and call it a Reliability Plan. A list of tools is not a reliability plan. Selecting the right reliability tools is input to writing an effective reliability plan. Other inputs include understanding organizational capabilities, agreement on proper reliability objectives, and knowledge of how to write executable tasks. Reliability tasks should be broken down into executable steps that result in the given objective when accomplished. Tasks should be carefully considered to implement the selected tools based on organizational capability. The reliability plan should cover tasks that implement tools and address organizational shortfalls that need to be resolved. Another important aspect is interaction with management. Management has a direct role in supporting the development and implementation of a reliability plan. Attendees of this webinar will learn answers to the questions outlined above and the steps to writing and executing the tasks that make up an effective reliability plan.

Selecting the Right Reliability Tools There are dozens of quality and reliability tools. How does a reliability practitioner know which specific tools to use in a new reliability program. Should reliability allocation be used? Which types of FMEAs are needed? What about robust design or design margin analysis? How does one go about selecting the right reliability tools that will be incorporated into an effective reliability plan? Many practitioners emphasize only the tools that they are familiar with or trained in. That is the wrong way. Other practitioners closely follow templates of a canned set of reliability tasks to outline the reliability tasks. That is also the wrong way. Using only tools that one is familiar with, or using a set of canned tools, will result in reliability plans that do not achieve objectives. The right way to go about selecting reliability tools is to first develop and get agreement on properly-written reliability objectives, then perform a reliability gap analysis that identifies the gaps to achieving the reliability objectives, and finally select the vital few reliability tools that close the gaps and achieve the objectives. Selecting reliability tools also requires understanding the purpose, benefits, limitations, and selection criteria for each of the reliability tools. Attendees of this webinar will learn answers to the questions outlined above, as well as an overview of the steps to selecting the right reliability tools to achieving reliability objectives.
