RAMS-Office NG is an analysis platform designed for the statistical evaluation of data for answering RAM(S) and LCC questions. The solution is industry-independent and highly customizable. Your analysis team is supported by the software to systematically filter and check the accumulated event data and to carry out statistical evaluations of the reliability of your systems and components on this basis.
The results can be output as print-ready, editable reports or archived in the integrated characteristic value library.
Fault trees and LCC analyses can be calculated on the basis of the characteristic values and imported data from Excel, statistics and FTA/FMEA standard tools.
