V2C: Process Reliability
Process Reliability is achieved through a combination of equipment reliability and material supply reliability.
Equipment reliability is often achived through a combination of TPM (Total Preventative Maintenance) techniques and 5S.
Material Reliability is a combination of internal scheduling and supplier capability for materials and quality systems to ensure that the products consistently match their specification.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Hi Ruth, thanks so much for the detailed references. I learned a lot from this job, and all of you helped.

Asker: The references are invaluable but since it was a list I ended up not using "material" - it ahd been used earlier. I wish I could have shared the Kudoz points between you and Kim - these decisions are not easy when you are not an expert in the field! Thank you again. M
