Hardware Test and Reliability

Satisfy your customers with products that last

Hardware reliability focuses on ensuring your product will last for its entire lifetime. We partner with you at every phase of the product development cycle to help you meet your test and reliability goals.

In the beginning, a little goes a long way

The best way to create a reliable product is to engineer reliability in from the beginning.

We perform design reviews, assist with material selection, and define use cases to empower you to prevent issues before they begin.

We also help you develop the overall reliability strategy that makes the most sense for your product and your organization.

If it’s never been built, it’s never been tested

Proper testing is key to ensuring that your product works as it should. While standard tests have their place, sometimes custom tests are the only way to truly evaluate your product.

Starting with defining use cases and characterizing field stresses, we help you identify where custom tests are needed and where standard tests will suffice.

From there, we develop the custom tests you need for every phase of your product’s life cycle (design, manufacturing, field) so that you can launch your product with confidence.

Some failures won’t happen in the lab

Product launch is your first opportunity to see how your product is actually performing in the field.

From field monitoring to RMA process design, we help you learn from each generation so that each product you build can be better than the last.

Reliability programs that fit with your organization

High reliability is only possible with strong collaboration. We design reliability programs that work with your organization today and as you grow.

By collaborating with teams including design, manufacturing, field, supply chain, data, support, and finance, we make sure that you have a reliability program that makes sense for you.

Analysis by hardware engineers, for hardware engineers

Conventional data analytics and AI techniques are great in many applications, but do not always work for reliability data.

Especially in populations with low failure rates, failures can be filtered out as outliers if the wrong analysis techniques are used.

We use established reliability analysis techniques such as Life Data Analysis so that you can analyze your product without filtering out failures. For organizations with high volumes of data, we also provide automation services.
