Reliability methods have traditionally been applied to the design of new products or the evaluation of existing products in the field. However, these same disciplines can be utilized to determine the production output of nearly any discrete industrial process. Utilizing basic reliability concepts, this session shows how industrial processes can be better measured and evaluated, thus providing new opportunities for reliability professionals.
Reliability concepts can be applied to operations management to more accurately predict and monitor industrial processes. Using actual examples of the work done at Pitney Bowes, the audience will gain a fresh perspective at how to show value in using reliability analyses to compliment operations management principles.
