Summary: Reliability Simplified transforms the complex subject of reliability into words and approaches that all levels of management and engineering can easily understand and implement. To disregard or minimize the importance of product reliability is to focus only on the short term. Reliability Simplified instead shows you how to focus on the long term, explaining the economic necessity of reliability and detailing logical tools and applied techniques that are important for understanding and using product reliability science. The end result is, of course, improvement in your product's reliability. As many organizations place product and service reliability on the back burner, those who dedicate themselves to reliability-centered customer requests will rise to the top. Get today's tools for achieving optimum product reliability and exploiting related business opportunities in Reliability Simplified.
