Quote by Tatsuhiko Yoshimura:
It is also a result of good efforts by Bill Haughey in GMNA Validation.  He is the person who understands the GD3 philosophy most correctly.

 

ReliaTrain was formed to support companies and their suppliers in developing a process to improve their Quality, Reliability and Durability of their products and processes.

ReliaTrain provides training and mentoring in all reliability methods and technology, such as: DFSS, FMEA, DFM, DFA, tolerance analysis, weibull++ and DRBFM (GD3).

During my experience as the global process lead for FMEA and DRBFM, I had the opportunity to work with multiple suppliers. I also had the opportunity to train our global engineering centers in Australia, Mexico and Canada, as well as the vehicle and powertrain engineering centers in the US. This experience has enabled me to work with 1000’s of engineers and understand their opinion of what is the strength and weakness of these methodologies.

While at GM, I was mentored by Tatsuhiko Yoshimura in his GD3 philosophy, which includes DRBFM and DRBTR. He identified me as an expert in his methodologies and has approved my use of his training material and name as reference (see Letter of Recommendation). Only experience sitting through reviews with Tatsuhiko Yoshimura can provide the expert knowledge of his process. My understanding of his methodology allowed me to provide ideas for improvements. There must be an understanding of the complete GD3 methodology in order to implement any one part, DRBFM or DRBTR. In most cases, it is not something that can be absorbed by simply reading his printed material.

I have formed working partnerships with the following companies who have global recognition:

ReliaSoft: A world leader in reliability training, consulting and software technology. http://www.reliasoft.com  

Dimensional Control Systems: A world leader in dimensional management and engineering services. http://www.3dcs.com  

My Mission:

ReliaTrain improves the long term quality, reliability and durability of products and processes of companies while implementing change. Expert training will enable focus on the area of change and improvement in quality, cost and delivery. ReliaTrain will provide the linkage between company and supplier expectations, understanding, execution and results.
