When we’ve identified a risk to our design or user process – and that risk can pose a potential harm – how many controls do we need to add?
We discuss prevention vs. detection controls, ALARP, as low as possible, and some scenarios where we could (and maybe couldn’t) justify a risk as acceptable without adding additional controls.
In this week’s episode a replay in which Blair welcomes Sunil Vedula and Graham Kawulka of NanoPrecise Corp, and Dean Stephens of Benchmark Reliability Services to talk about the value of precision and confidence when it comes to wireless vibration condition monitoring. NanoPrecise hardware and software are challenging the value of both precision and confidence in one solution.

How we describe and approach the issues we need to solve can affect how we react to them. We know we’re supposed to be solving for root causes. But are we, instead, really just addressing symptoms? Are we celebrating the quick fix and then moving on without addressing the root of our issue?
“If you define the problem correctly, you almost have the solution.” – Steve Jobs
Recognize the common mishaps of us solving symptoms instead of really getting to the causes. And, clearly describe our problem in two parts (statement and description of facts) to be confident that we’re moving toward solving the causes.
What role does ‘wishful thinking’ play in interpreting reliability test results? Hopefully, none. A well-designed test will likely provide meaningful results. You and your team may not like the results, yet the results will be clear. [Read more…]
