Reliability Integration into the Product Development Process

Accendo Reliability Webinar Series

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.
