From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In engineering, RAMS (reliability, availability, maintainability and safety)[1][2] is used to characterize a product or system:

  • Reliability – as ability to perform a specific function and may be given as design reliability or operational reliability.
  • Availability, – as ability to keep a functioning state in the given environment.
  • Maintainability – as ability to be timely and easily maintained (including servicing, inspection and check, repair and/or modification).
  • Safety – as ability not to harm people, the environment, or any assets during a whole life cycle.
