Production Screening Reimagined: Using HASS to Optimize Quality and Cut Costs

SUMMARY & CONCLUSIONSCompanies across various industries must continue to keep up with rapidly evolving technology while navigating the challenges of a volatile global economic landscape. There is increased pressure to reduce costs and production time while still developing and producing a robust high quality product. The cost of failure, whether affecting customers in the field or delaying development and production cycles, becomes increasingly impactful. The importance of optimization in reliability to maintain an efficient and effective production process has never been greater.It is important to maintain quality control of the supply line, reduce production time and costs, and minimize early-life failures, all while keeping up with a competitive market. By developing and implementing an accelerated stress screen, companies are able to maintain an increased confidence in their supply line and production processes. This paper discusses the implementation of an effective Highly Accelerated Stress Screen (HASS) or Audit (HASA) in order to improve production reliability and keep up with modern challenges.
