Program Managing for Reliability During Development of the Cessna Citation Mustang

New program reliability success can be attributed to continuous process improvement and using lessons learned from previous programs to develop new processes and applications for reliability tools and methodology.

This presentation will use the Cessna Citation Mustang as an example. During the Mustang program, significant strides were made to adopt Design for Reliability earlier than on previous programs. New metrics were developed and used to track progress, and to drive reliability substantiation accountability throughout the supply chain. The successes and lessons learned have resulted in greater acceptance and understanding of reliability engineering’s role during the advanced design stages of development.

Key Words: Design for Reliability, NP&SI, Substantiation
