CARE – Improve your product design  

Computer-Aided Reliability Engineering

BQR’s CARE software suite is an integrated one-stop-shop for all RAMS analyses, integrated with CAD tools. CARE provides a complete solution to the needs of reliability engineers, mostly used during product design or operation to improve robustness and reliability.

Complexity of critical systems is on the rise, and so is the workload of reliability engineers. BQR’s CARE suite gives reliability engineers the tools to organize technical and reliability data, conduct RAMS analyses (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety) in an integrated form concurrently and to easily produce reports.

CARE together with the fiXtress include Plug-In modules to popular CAD tools to automatically retrieve all design data applicable to RAMS analysis.
