Safety-related systems must be thoroughly tested and analyzed throughout their development cycle. Early testing and analysis – ideally in the initial phases – is advisable so faults can be detected early. This not only saves time and cost; most importantly it prevents the development of systems that may potentially be unsafe.
Why is safety analysis so important?
Safety analysis tests lead to:
- Identification of faults
- Assessment of their effects on the safety objective
- Investigation of fault causes
- Identification of weak areas
- Qualitative and quantitative analyses
- Derivation of safety test plans
- Information to establish diagnostic intervals
- Reduction of quality costs
Methods for Safety Analysis
We use various methods for safety analysis, choosing and adapting different methodologies for each individual project. This allows any special characteristics of the system to be addressed.
SGS uses the following safety analysis methods:
