9. Conclusion
Figures
1. Some of the determinants and measures of the
    quality of a product
2. Comparison of cost and reliability for a
    manufacturer or producer
3. Comparison of cost and reliability for a purchaser,
    owner or user
4. Simplified reliability programme concept
5. Responsibilities for reliability
6. Distribution of load and strength
7. Bath tub curve showing the relationship of number
    of failures against time

Aimed at directors of companies looking for overall advantages, engineers not trained in quality and reliability to show how reliability can help in their technical decision making, and at middle management not specialized in engineering to demonstrate how reliability should be dovetailed in with other disciplines to give them the best result.
