Nelson Engineering Uses Dyadem Software to Deliver Reliability and Maintenance Analyses to Commercial Clients and U.S. Government Agencies

TORONTO – March 31, 2008 - Nelson Engineering Co. is the latest engineering consulting company to implement Dyadem's FMEA-Pro software to deliver efficient, high quality reliability and maintainability assessments to its clients. A premier engineering design, operations and maintenance consulting firm, Nelson Engineering evaluates complex heritage and newly designed facility systems, equipment and utilities (FSEU) for the aerospace, environmental and defense sectors and the U.S. State Department. Nelson Engineering's work processes are enhanced and streamlined with the help of Dyadem's software, which provides customized, comprehensive analyses.

Nelson Engineering's renewed contract with Dyadem, the leader in Quality Lifecycle Management and Risk Lifecycle Management solutions, allows the company to provide Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) reports to its clients in the aerospace, environmental and defense sectors, where billions of dollars depend on their clients' products working properly every time.

Possessing a client roster that includes NASA, the U.S. Air Force, Boeing and Northrop Grumman, Nelson Engineering's customers have no margin for defects or oversights. The company has used Dyadem's legacy FMEA-Pro software since 2002 to deliver analyses defining actions to address reliability concerns, manufacturing inefficiencies and design weaknesses using robust engineering solutions.

Prior to using FMEA-Pro software, Nelson Engineering was dependent on consumer-grade software to capture client data. The company selected FMEA-Pro to improve the efficiency of its analytics, easily migrate existing client data, and offer customizable formatting for incorporation into a variety of applications, such as Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS).

Nelson Engineering purchased FMEA-Pro 7 with its enhanced support for data mirroring and criticality matrices to continue providing the most inclusive and intuitive failure analysis, process hazard analysis and environmental engineering service solutions. FMEA-Pro 7 has allowed Nelson Engineering to develop new revenue streams by broadening its portfolio of offerings to include, for example, Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM), an industrial framework that establishes operational and maintenance polices that minimize the risk of equipment failure.

"Dyadem's FMEA Pro software offers us a clear, competitive advantage over our competitors who facilitate their FMEAs and related analyses using standard spreadsheets,” said Blain Nelson, President, Nelson Engineering Co."The software has not only allowed us to pursue new lines of business, but also provides our clients with detailed analysis and systematic policy recommendations that emulate the core values to which we as a company hold ourselves accountable”.

As the standard tool of choice for thousands of companies worldwide, including much of the Fortune 500, FMEA-Pro is designed to better analyze product designs and manufacturing processes, dramatically shorten study time and prevent failures from happening. Dyadem also offers FTA-Pro fault tree analysis software, designed to bring enterprise-level failure analysis to the aerospace and defense industries.
