Reliability Engineering
When product issues lead to process improvements. Precise, fast, and effective: We identify and optimize process weaknesses based on our systematic product evaluation and our best-practice experience.
Background
Do complex products require complex processes? Not exactly. The fact is that companies have been shaping and improving their process and methodology frameworks for years, and in some cases have already achieved a high level of detail. Nevertheless—or perhaps precisely because of this—a satisfactory quality situation has not been achieved. This is where reliability engineering comes in: A complete and often undesirable redesign of processes is avoided. Instead, the areas with the greatest need for action are identified and improved, so that a high level of results can be achieved with minimal effort.
Specific task
- Identify process weaknesses that lead to poor quality
- Describe a vision for quality assurance within product development
- Propose specific measures that can be implemented even in the short term
- Tailored to the company's specific needs and implemented efficiently
- Improve quality by more than 25%
KBC's Approach
Starting with specific product issues, the KBC methodology allows for the quick and precise identification of corresponding process weaknesses. Since the problems identified have rarely, if ever, occurred in comparable industries, the KBC methodology offers a range of concrete improvement ideas for nearly every weakness. These are discussed together with your experts, and the current maturity level of your processes as well as the desired, practical maturity level are determined. This results in a specific target vision for your company and concrete measures to achieve it.
