Forecasting Product <strong>Reliability</strong><br />

Using the <strong>Reliability</strong> Forecast Platform<br />

The <strong>Reliability</strong> Forecast platform helps you predict the number of future failures. JMP estimates the<br />

parameters for a life distribution using production dates, failure dates, <strong>and</strong> production volume. Using the<br />

interactive graphs, you can adjust factors such as future production volumes <strong>and</strong> contract length to estimate<br />

future failures. Repair costs can be incorporated into the analysis to forecast the total cost of repairs across all<br />

failed units.<br />
