German term

Fehlleistungskosten

German to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob "failure costs" stimmt weil es sich möglicherweise nicht um Ausfälle sonder auch um Planungsfehler, etc., handelt.


Reduktion von Fehlleistungskosten (Reduktion CAPEX)

Ein Reduktionspotenzial von x % auf die Gesamtkosten von Großprojekten entsteht aus den Effekten Projektbeschleunigung und der Reduktion der Fehlleistungskosten.

Kürzere Projektdauer dank höhererAkzeptanz und weniger Fehlleistungen

(financial) reduction in case of / due to errors

I think the solution in this case would be a simpler term than the German compound noun in the ST, with 'error' encapsulating an array of possibilities. The professional context is already given, so I doubt you'd need to specify this with an adjective preceding the noun...

neutral Steffen Walter : (additional) costs incurred by non-performance/underperformance/off-spec work?
