Failure Analysis
Services

While no company likes the thought of facing a possible product failure, unfortunately, inferior or defective products can enter the marketplace as a result of unforeseen factors, or fail after purchase simply through consumer abuse or misuse of the product. There are a multitude of reasons for consumer product failure, ranging from simple physical breakdowns to potentially hazardous situations such as electrical shock, fire, or melting. Or, there could be customer complaints regarding alleged sensitivity to the product or other concerns.

The real challenge when these failures occur is in knowing what steps to take next. Was the product actually defective? Is it necessary to conduct a product recall? Are there liability issues involved and the potential for impending lawsuits? Is there something that can be done to prevent this situation from happening again in the future?

What is Failure Analysis?
When a product fails, you need to know what happened and what steps you must take to reduce your company’s risk. Understanding the real issue behind the failure is a critical step in developing an appropriate response. If a failure is discovered in the field, or uncovered by company staff prior to market, your re-shipment testing or certification documentation will be insufficient to provide the answers you need. Failure Analysis is a service developed by Bureau Veritas to provide the additional technical knowledge and information necessary to obtain the answers and solutions for your unique situation.

What are the key benefits?
• Answers to your specific concern or questions
• Enhanced risk management and brand protection
• Minimized possibility of costly recalls
• Protection of the consumer from potential harm
