ReliaSoft's RGA
Software for Repairable System
and Reliability Growth Analysis

Product Overview

ReliaSoft’s RGA 6 combines the most comprehensive and powerful reliability growth analysis software with fielded (repairable) systems analysis capabilities for determining the optimum overhaul time and other results without the detailed data sets that would normally be required.

The development of RGA 6 was a joint effort between ReliaSoft Corporation and Dr. Larry Crow, the leading authority in the field of reliability growth analysis, along with key development partners in government and industry. This collaboration has resulted in an application-oriented software package with all of the major reliability growth models, plus formulations that are not available anywhere else.

RGA is available in two editions: Standard and Professional. [View Feature Comparison]

Reliability Growth Analysis and Results
Both RGA 6 and RGA 6 PRO support all of the traditional reliability growth analysis models: Crow-AMSAA (N.H.P.P.), Duane, Standard Gompertz, Lloyd-Lipow, Modified Gompertz and Logistic. You can use these models to analyze time-to-failure (continuous), success/failure (discrete) and reliability data from various types of developmental (reliability growth) tests. Analysis results and plots include:

MTBF, Reliability or Failure Intensity given time (cumulative or instantaneous)
Expected Number of Failures given time
Time/Stage to achieve a given MTBF or Failure Intensity

Reliability Growth Projections, Planning and Management
RGA 6 PRO provides full support for the enhanced data analysis methodology developed by Dr. Larry Crow to address the different types of developmental (reliability growth) testing strategies that can be employed: test-fix-test, test-find-test or test-fix-find-test. This methodology enables reliability growth projections and provides a method to evaluate the reliability growth management strategy. Analysis results, plots and charts include:

Demonstrated MTBF or Failure Intensity
Projected MTBF or Failure Intensity
Maximum Growth Potential
Unseen Failure Modes

Fielded (Repairable) Systems Analysis
RGA 6 PRO also supports the data analysis methodology developed by Dr. Larry Crow to combine data from multiple fielded repairable systems into a single "superposition" system that can be used to estimate the optimum overhaul time (given repair and overhaul costs) and other metrics of interest without the detailed data sets that would normally be required.

Unparalleled Supporting Features
RGA 6 also provides all of the supporting features that you have come to expect from ReliaSoft’s software: intuitive graphical interface, extensive graphical plotting, automated report output (in Microsoft Word or Excel), custom analysis tools (General Spreadsheet, Function Wizard), supplementary analysis tools (Quick Statistical Reference, Design of Reliability Tests), integration with Weibull++, comprehensive documentation, free product support and more...
