Need for Reliability
A Reliability Program should encompass all the key activities needed, from
concept development through production, to deliver high value & successful
products to customers
Reliability should be managed in all life cycle phases, with a systemic
approach and throughout the Extended Enterprise
CUSTOMER PERCEIVED VALUE

Reliability is a major driver of Customer Perceived Value

Each level represents a breakthrough in the effectiveness of the reliability process and the results achieved
Reliability Life Cycle Maturity Index (RLCMI)
Is a index of different Reliability Life Cycle Management Levels (RLCM)How can RLCMI bring value to your organization and Customers? Companies who achieved higher RLCMI level experienced:
– Lower the product development cost and time to market.
– More upfront reliability planning and activities are realized
– Fewer prototypes are necessary to achieve reliability targets
– More accurate the reliability predictions
6
Reliability Life Cycle Maturity Index (RLCMI)
The RLCMI positioning and benchmark activities will evaluate the Customer’s reliability maturity and help them advance to the next level
Key Steps to Growing your Reliability Maturity:– Establish current Reliability Maturity level within your
organization– Conduct benchmark at all levels of a
company – Conduct a gap analysis between
your company’s process and your industries best practices
Fiducia TG uses its RLCMI approach to benchmark a company’s reliability processes against the industry ‘s best practices

Reliability Capability Analysis
Reliability Capability
This is the best value of the reliability measure that the product can attain. It should take into consideration the following:
1. The complexity and nature of the product
2. The previous and new design concept
3. Historic product reliability levels for the company
4. Best-in-class and World class Reliability levels
For an aggressive program, the target will equal the Product Capability, but the target should never exceed the capability.
Reliability Capability provides a “Baseline” or “Benchmark” for what is realistically achievable. The higher the baseline, the higher the staring point will be.

New Content Analysis
The objectives are:
1. Quantitatively evaluate the newness of the product design using a consistent method
2. Plan proactive reliability activities and the impact of the activities have on reliability risk reduction
3. Use the New Content result to empirically predict the starting reliability (or unreliability) of the first prototypes
4. Use the starting point prediction to proactively plan a Reliability Growth program for the new product
The larger the “New Content”:
1. The more untested and unproven the product design is
2. The more reliability risk associated with the new product
3. The more new, unforeseen, and unanticipated failure modes we expect
4. The higher our estimate for unreliability for the first prototypes produced

Infant Mortality vs. Useful Life Reliability Growth
Level 3 addresses mostly Useful Life Reliability
But IM and UL cannot be effectively addressed simultaneously by a single Reliability Growth program. Separate RG programs are required.

Useful Life Reliability Growth is
accomplished using a combination of:
Engineering prototypes
Preproduction Units
Initial production units
Testing involves extended operation
well into the warranty period and
beyond
Most of the UL Growth effort needs to
be accomplished as early as possible,
using engineering prototypes and
preproduction units
Initial production units are used mostly
for UL verification, although a small
Growth effort is usually required
because of new problems introduced.

Reliability Growth Testing
Monitoring and Managing Reliability Growth During the Vehicle Test Phases
43
Identify previously unknown and unforeseen product reliability problems through testing
Eliminate failure modes using an intensive and disciplined problem solving process
Achieve reliability levels in the engineering prototypes and first production-built units that are:
1. Acceptable for market introduction
2. Consistent with the reliability objectives for the mature product
Ensure that reliability improvement proceeds as planned and on schedule
Dramatic improvements must be made in a minimum amount of
time, using a limited number of test units
What are the Objectives of a RG Program?
44
Reliability Growth Monitoring
The objectives are:1. Use Reliability Growth Charts to continually monitor actual progress
relative to the plan
2. Know immediately when significant deviation from the plan has occurred
3. Proactively take the required corrective actions to ensure that the reliability target is achieved on time

Benefits of the RLCM Methodology
Each RLCMI level is breakthrough in reliability achievement
Provides a comprehensive and proven approach to Reliability Management
Emphasizes proactively planning the program and managing product development activities relative to the plan
Assists in prioritizing and planning proactive (preventative) activities and planning for the benefits of those efforts in terms of reduced RG testing and/or warranty costs.
Supports the transition and maturation of the product development process over time
1. From TAAF (Test Analyze And Fix) to failure prevention
2. From vehicle testing for Growth to vehicle testing for verification
