In today’s complex product environment, becoming more and more electronic, do the designers and manufacturers really understand what IS Reliability ??
It is NOT simply following standards to test in RD to focus only on Design Robustness as there is too much risk in prediction confidence, it only deals with the ‘intrinsic’ failure period and rarely has sufficient Test Strength to stimulate failures. [Read more…]

An organization working to create a reliable product or system is made up of people. This is important, as a group of people working together quickly forms a culture. Culture is the idea that there is a set of norms concerning how we do what we do.
Let’s explore how a group’s culture affects its ability to create a reliable product or system. It’s part how we talk about reliability, what tasks, and tests we do. Yet, it’s more about how we each make decisions.
We will also explore the five stages of reliability maturity and how you can determine your organization’s stage. Plus, a few notes on how to improve the reliability culture.

We select the beige sweater because we have a color bias concerning our sweaters.
Many of our biases help us quickly make decisions. We rely on biases to move through the day. Many of our biases are under the surface, unconsciously guiding our daily decisions. Mostly, biases are good or at least inconsequential.
The problem is the bias that shields us from achieving our goals. [Read more…]
