Book Description
Details all the issues and applications of reliability engineering relevant to the use and purchase of equipment. Introduces reliability terminology for the non-specialist. Discusses product procurement based on life cycle cost, the total expenditure of ownership as opposed to merely acquisition, procurement dependability specifications, equipment inspection frequency, optimization of replacement, overhaul tactics and schedules. Explains how to collect, analyze and monitor field failure data in order to build up dependable reliability data banks for future use.

Book Description
Large Scale Integration (LSI) promises many advantages to the designer of state-of-the-art electronic systems in size, weight, and cost reduction while enhancing performance and reliability. However, successful transition to this new technology presents new challenges. Traditional quality assurance and reliability assessment practices designed around large volume part procurements must be re-examined. Most likely a much closer interface will be established between the vendor and user. The reliability and quality assurance staff is in a unique position to develop and lead this combined effort. Technical Monograph 70-2 develops an approach for a coincident reliability program and considers the reliability impact of processing and design decisions. Expected and observed failure modes and mechanisms, including packaging problems, are discussed. Guidelines are included for a quality assurance program covering process control, screening, and LSI testing. Finally, a method is outlined for predicting LSI component failure rates. (Author).

Book Description
The purpose of this thesis is to report on the results of a study to determine: (1) the benefits of using reliability in the procurement of replenishment spares, (2) uses of reliability information to determine the necessity for special engineering efforts in reprocurement actions, and (3) some guides for use in obtaining the necessary reliability in replenishment spares.

Book Description
This edited collection fills a significant gap in the literature by gathering contributions from the most prominent academics and practitioners of aid and procurement. It explores the economic, political and legal relationship between procurement and aid effectiveness in developing countries, and takes stock of current debates in the field. More specifically, the contributions analyse the failures and successes of current initiatives to foster effectiveness and streamline the aid procurement process, and address current themes emerging in the literature related to development, procurement and aid success. A pivotal and timely publication, Public Procurement and Aid Effectiveness will be of interest to a varied and multicultural international audience and a wide range of actors working on aid effectiveness, development, procurement and good governance initiatives in both donor and beneficiary countries.

Book Description
The existence of a goal conflict in the buyer/seller relationship is inherent under a profit motivated system where conventional procurement techniques are used. The buyer seeks maximum performance at minimum life cycle cost and the seller seeks to maximize profit which may translate to minimizing reliability improvement costs. Experience of military and commercial procurement activities with the use of Reliability Improvement Warranties (RIW's) has led to the conclusion that the RIW may be a valuable tool in bringing buyer/seller goals into agreement by transferring the management of costs to the seller. Background material on DoD and commercial warranty experience is used to form the framework for an evaluation criteria developed by ARINC Research Corporation to test the applicability of RIW to a particular acquisition.

Book Description
Production costs are being reduced by automation, robotics, computer-integrated manufacturing, cost reduction studies and more. These new technologies are expensive to buy, repair, and maintain. Hence, the demand on maintenance is growing and its costs are escalating. This new environment is compelling industrial maintenance organizations to make the transition from fixing broken machines to higher-level business units for securing production capacity. On the academic front, research in the area of maintenance management and engineering is receiving tremendous interest from researchers. Many papers have appeared in the literature dealing with the modeling and solution of maintenance problems using operations research (OR) and management science (MS) techniques. This area represents an opportunity for making significant contributions by the OR and MS communities. Maintenance, Modeling, and Optimization provides in one volume the latest developments in the area of maintenance modeling. Prominent scholars have contributed chapters covering a wide range of topics. We hope that this initial contribution will serve as a useful informative introduction to this field that may permit additional developments and useful directions for more research in this fast-growing area. The book is divided into six parts and contains seventeen chapters. Each chapter has been subject to review by at least two experts in the area of maintenance modeling and optimization. The first chapter provides an introduction to major maintenance modeling areas illustrated with some basic models. Part II contains five chapters dealing with maintenance planning and scheduling. Part III deals with preventive maintenance in six chapters. Part IV focuses on condition-based maintenance and contains two chapters. Part V deals with integrated production and maintenance models and contains two chapters. Part VI addresses issues related to maintenance and new technologies, and also deals with Just-in-Time (JIT) and Maintenance.
