I want to tell you that I have gone through many webinars on Accendo Reliability and found them very useful. I am new to Reliability Engineering and very keen to learn it and apply it in my organization. — Ankur Sharma
We record each event and post the video along with the slides or workbook, plus we use the audio for a podcast.
Fundamentals of System Effectiveness
Scheduled for October 8, 2024, at 9 am US Pacific time.
Speaker: Fred Schenkelberg
System or Operational Effectiveness is comprised of three elements. An early definition included capability, reliability, and availability. Another early definition included availability, dependability, and capability. In essence, can the system do what it’s supposed to do? Is it ready when needed? And is it able to work without failure long enough?
Let’s examine system effectiveness and its factors or elements in more detail. Then, examine an example or two so you can apply this concept to your situation.

Speaker: Chris Jackson
Every industry has its own way of characterizing reliability metrics. For example, the ball bearing industry uses the metric ‘B_10’ to represent the time by which they expect 10 % of all ball bearings of a specific type to fail. Electronic component manufacturers use the term ‘Failures in Time’ of ‘FITs’ to describe the reliability of their products. But what is a FIT? And how can you use it to measure reliability? Did you know that many electronic manufacturers advertise ‘FIT values’ that imply a mean time to failure of over 1 000 years? If you are involved in electronic component reliability, then join us for this webinar!

Wanted to let everyone new to these live events to know that the presentation is scheduled for an hour but afterwards there is always very good discussion. So if you can set aside an extra 15 to 30 minutes afterwards to listen in and contribute. I noticed today that Fred turned off the recording at the one hour mark so the discussion is only available in the live event and not in the recorded version.
Hi Bert, thanks for the comment. I did shut down the recording as I was pretty quiet on the question front. Then Chris did get a few more questions prompting more discussion. Guess it is good reason to make the live event – and a lesson for me to keep recording… cheers, Fred
