Use reliability analysis to inform design and service decisions.
MADE provides a model-based RAMS environment for evaluating reliability and availability across the product lifecycle, helping engineering teams create traceable reliability targets, compare design configurations and identify poor performing items before they become operational risk.
Reliability is too important to manage as a milestone document.
Reliability is a key determinant in total cost of ownership. Yet reliability analysis is often performed as a static milestone activity rather than a controlled, consistent and traceable process aligned to the current design configuration.
MADE turns reliability into a live engineering decision process.
By connecting system structure, functional behaviour, failure data and analysis outputs, MADE helps teams keep reliability analysis aligned with the design as it evolves.
Move from disconnected analysis to lifecycle traceability.
MADE RAM combines Reliability Allocation, Reliability Block Diagram modelling, Reliability / Availability Analysis and Fault Tree Analysis so engineers can generate design and service recommendations from a single system model.
Make reliability performance visible across the lifecycle.
MADE provides a controlled framework for evaluating reliability and availability across product design, analysis, maintenance planning and service support.
Evaluate reliability and availability
Assess system reliability and availability across the product lifecycle using repeatable model-based analysis.
Support maintenance scheduling and costing
Use reliability calculations to inform maintenance planning, downtime reduction and lifecycle cost decisions.
Set apportioned targets
Allocate reliability targets based on system-level reliability goals and compare performance against those targets.
Find poor performing items
Identify components, functions or assemblies that do not meet reliability expectations and prioritise redesign effort.
How MADE supports reliability analysis over the product lifecycle.
The following lifecycle workflow reflects the brochure section and allows key imagery to be included as individual visual panels.
Capture the reliability structure
Construct a Reliability Block Diagram linked to the physical and functional structure of the system.
Compare targets and performance
Generate reliability targets and compare them with operational performance using time-to-failure data.
Identify poor performers
Gain insight into reliability performance and identify items that need redesign or improvement.
Review RBD calculations using FTA
Verify the probability of failure from RBD analysis using hardware-based Fault Tree Analysis.
Derive a maintenance plan
Use reliability calculations in a Classic Reliability-Centered Maintenance process to support trade studies on downtime and maintenance cost.
Calculate lifecycle cost
Compare maintenance plans and costs against design-stage estimates to refine the maintenance approach.
Generate the outputs reliability teams need to influence design.
MADE helps teams produce reliability evidence that can be reviewed, compared, updated and reused throughout the product lifecycle.
Reliability analysis connected to the system model.
MADE is a model-based integrated toolset that generates reliability analyses from the system model, helping teams keep track of design reliability in real time and in context.
Optimise availability and reliability
Use reliability analysis to improve system availability and reliability across the expected operational life.
- Analyse how failures propagate through the system.
- Review the reliability impact of design alternatives.
- Support design downtime reduction and reliability optimisation.
Create a managed reliability framework
Manage reliability data across the product lifecycle rather than relying on static documents or disconnected spreadsheets.
- Capture reliability and availability data in the MADE modelling framework.
- Maintain traceability from analysis outputs to system configuration.
- Automatically generate key design reliability outputs.

Build reliability confidence into every design decision.
MADE helps engineering teams connect reliability targets, system structure, failure behaviour, maintenance planning and lifecycle cost into one model-based decision support environment.
