Manufacturers have been struggling for years with the necessity to produce high quality products that do not fail once they have been delivered to the customer. Auditing for stated reliability expectations can create a good product – but exceeding these standards will create a superior product. HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Test), HASS (Highly Accelerated Stress Screen), and HASA (Highly Accelerated Stress Audit) are intensive methods used by the world’s top manufacturers to expose products to extreme environmental conditions, improve design and process weaknesses, and improve product quality – all before the product is introduced to the market. HALT, HASS & HASA Explained was written to aid organizations in this quest to implement these methods and produce highly reliable products without getting bogged-down in equations.
Written by a renowned teacher and practitioner of these techniques, this resource book is all that is required to implement a successful accelerated reliability program for your organization. Use it to help your company dramatically reduce failure rates in the field, assure a mature product at introduction, add to profitability, and greatly increase customer satisfaction.

HALT, HASS & HASA Explained is the perfect resource for developing an accelerated reliability program for your company. With an actual example of a company that transitioned from a traditional reliability program to a HALT and HASA program, the author guides you through instituting and equipping the proper accelerated reliability program for your company’s products to selling these concepts to top management.
