RAMS 2013 Establishing product reliability goals
The document discusses establishing reliability goals for product design. It recommends that reliability goals should specify the product function, operating environment, expected duration of use, and acceptable probability of failure. A complete reliability goal statement clearly defines these four elements to guide design for ensuring the product reliably performs its intended function for the desired lifetime.
