News VEXTEC Develops Army Vehicle Reliability-Based Decision Making Software Nashville , TN., January 9, 2006 - The reliability of the final system is a function of the reliability of all of the parts, including interconnections between the parts. If component reliability is sufficiently understood, it becomes possible to mathematically model the contributions to overall system reliability from each of the lower level elements. The Army has tasked VEXTEC with development of a new software package for predicting reliability, performance, and cost of future military systems as integrated functions. This tool will enable Army leadership, engineers and designers to assess the real world effect of materials and manufacturing variability in order to make rationale decisions about specifications and manufacturing controls requirements as well as how future systems should be procured. About VEXTEC VEXTEC will soon launch a new enterprise solution software package enabling reliability engineering to be approached at a new strategic level within the corporate organization and between companies, strategic partners and vendors. Manufacturers mastering the modern and updated version of the complexities of the art and science of reliability, will be able to execute at the corporate level with a new rational crispness like never before. Those manufacturers will significantly out-perform manufacturers that do not. Our premise is simple: The cost of physical tests is rising. The cost of computer cycles is plummeting. It is common sense to replace the former with the later.
