How Do we Set Reliability Requirements?

Abstract

Chris and Carl discuss a listener question on FMEA RPN and connection to reliability requirements.

Key Points

Join Chris and Carl as they discuss RPN is not a reliability metric and there are better ways to do allocation to set requirements.
Topics include:

• Multiplying severity, occurrence, and detection does not provide a valid risk value.
• A misunderstanding of critical analysis and the use of failure rates, which are not required
• Reliability requirements should precede FMEA based on customer and business needs and expectations.

Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques to field data analysis approaches.
