Show Notes

Getting questions answered about reliability can be a challenge for many reasons.

Where do you go to ask questions? Some forums are useful. Internal company forums are an option. Accendo Reliability is yet another option for a place to ask questions!

What do you ask, especially if there’s no NDA? Be thoughtful about phrasing your questions for feedback. A good starting point may be to check the assumptions. Include as much as you can about your goals and your scenario. Create your questions like you would a prompt for AI.

Even if you have an NDA, you don’t have to hide the failures behind phrases like “thermal event” or “rapid disassembly”! Sometimes you don’t know what to ask, so be humble and start to ask what you’re curious about. This will at least start a dialogue where you may learn the information you need.
