Stop Missing Out: Reliability Tools Aren't Just for Reliability Engineers (2026-US-PO-2905)

Many of us have spent too much of our lives thinking that the reliability tools in JMP are just for catastrophic failures, product testing labs, or other “not my responsibility” situations. In fact, we likely already have the exact types of data that reliability methods are designed to manage. We just aren’t using these methods because we don’t recognize their applicability.

This presentation serves as an introduction to reliability methods, aimed at an audience that wants to improve processes and products. Using approachable case studies, attendees learn how to recognize when reliability methods can be useful for their data, as well as how to use basic reliability methods to speed up processes and reduce production delays.
