Three basic approaches to a completed program effort are discussed. An economical, yet effective, approach to reliability is presented with suggested considerations for maintainability of equipments. The term 'failure rate' is discussed and illustrated for use in determining spare parts requirements and possible application to a computer for logistic support. A new maintenance concept is presented and is based on the provisioning formula. (Author)
