Product & Component Failure Analysis
When products or components fail, the consequences can range from inconvenience to serious injury or property loss. Our forensic product failure evaluations identify how and why a product did not perform as intended, providing clarity for manufacturers, insurers, and legal teams.
Understanding Product Failure Analysis
Product failure analysis is crucial for identifying the root causes of product issues and preventing future occurrences. By systematically evaluating failures, we provide insights that support your decision-making processes. This service not only enhances product safety but also protects your brand’s integrity. Clients benefit through detailed reports that inform design improvements, enhance quality control, and ultimately reduce costs in the long run.
What We Do
Consumer Products & Appliances
Household items, electronics, and appliances are expected to perform safely under normal use. When they fail, the results can include property damage, injuries, or costly recalls. We analyze the design, materials, and user environment to determine the root cause of the failure and provide clear, defensible conclusions.
Automotive & Transport
Failures in vehicles, tires, and safety systems can have serious consequences for drivers, passengers, and manufacturers. Our evaluations focus on identifying whether the cause stems from design flaws, manufacturing defects, or improper maintenance. We provide technical insight that supports insurers, attorneys, and industry professionals in resolving disputes.
Industrial & Mechanical
Heavy equipment, machinery, and tools operate under demanding conditions where failure can halt operations or cause injury. We investigate breakdowns by examining wear, maintenance records, and design limitations to pinpoint the contributing factors. Our findings help clients prevent future incidents and support claims or litigation when disputes arise.
Materials & Components
Small components like welds, fasteners, or electrical parts often play a critical role in the integrity of a system. When they fail, the damage can extend far beyond the part itself. We apply forensic testing and analysis to uncover whether defects originated in design, manufacturing, or installation.
