Dave et al,
Reliability processes have been in place for many years. The old
AT&T system had extensive information on reliability developed down to the
component part level based upon their experience. I attended a sales pitch
(in the old days) when they were trying to rent out their database.
Relex Software Corp has developed an integrated system (which
inhales a tremendous amount of component info) that provides a reliability
prediction based upon your Bill of Materials. Additionally the software
includes FMEA/FMECA analysis (which can be used in safety evaluations) plus
a Life Cycle Cost feature.
Check it out at www.relexsoftware.com.
Yes, it's expensive - but you can rent it for a project if that will
work for you.
