2. IEEE RS Status 5 Standards in Sustainment:
IEEE (Standard for Organizational Reliability Capability)
IEEE (Recommended Practice on Software Reliability)
IEEE (Standard for Reliability Predictions)
IEEE P (Standard Reliability Program For The Development And Production Of Electronic Systems And Equipment )
IEEE P (IEEE Guide for Selection and Using Reliability Predictions Based on IEEE 1413TM )
2 Standards in Development:
IEEE/IEC P61014 (Standard for Reliability Growth Programs)
IEEE P1856 (Standard Framework for Prognostics and Health Management of Electronic Systems)

3. IEEE 1624 Title: Standard for Organizational Reliability Capability
Purpose: for assessing the reliability capability of an organization is to facilitate improvement of the product reliability.
Scope: A standard which defines the reliability capability of organizations and identifies the criteria for assessing the reliability capability of an organization.
This Standard can be used for self-assessment by organizations or for supplier/customer relationship development between members of supply chain.
A method to identify the shortcomings in reliability programs which can be rectified by subsequent improvement actions

4. IEEE1633 Title: Recommended Practice on Software Reliability
Purpose: promotes a systems approach to Software Reliability (SR) predictions and assessments
Scope: This Recommended Practice revision reflects those advances in SR since 1992, including modeling and prediction for distributed and network systems.
The methodologies and tools included in this Recommended Practice are extended over the software life cycle (SLC).
Jointly development with AIAA
Leverages CMU SEI CMM/CMMI

5. IEEE 1413
Title: Standard Framework for Reliability Prediction of Hardware
Purpose: To identify the required elements for an understandable and useful reliability prediction.
Scope: This standard provides the framework for performing and reporting reliability predictions. It applies to hardware products including electronic, electrical and mechanical devices and assemblies.
A reliability prediction made according to this standard shall have sufficient information concerning inputs, assumptions, and uncertainty so the risk associated with using the prediction results can be understood.

6. Planning to complete by 2012
IEEE 1332
Title: Reliability Program for the Development and Production of Electronic Products
Purpose: The purpose of this document is to establish a standard set of objectives which provide an effective structure for the life-cycle activities needed to design, manufacture and utilize reliable electronic products and systems across the supply chain.
Scope: This document provides a standard set of reliability program objectives for use between customers and producers, or within product development teams, to express reliability program requirements early in the development phase of electronic
Replacement for MIL-STD-785; similar to GEIA 0009 and SAE JA2000
New project (PAR) authorized in March 2008
Planning to complete by 2012

7. Planning to complete by 2012
IEEE
Title: Guide for Developing and Assessing Reliability Predictions Based on IEEE Standard 1413
Purpose: The purpose of this guide is to assist in the selection, performance, and comparison of the various reliability prediction processes and methodologies, and prediction results and outputs complying with IEEE 1413 standard.
Scope: The scope of this guide is to provide processes and methodologies for conducting and assessing reliability predictions for electronic systems or products.
This Guide will facilitate the understanding of reliability prediction processes and methodologies, and help users to determine how to use the different processes and methodologies during the life cycle of systems and products.
References MIL-HDBK-217 and other handbooks and methods
PAR approved by NesCom on 26 March, 2008
Planning to complete by 2012

8. Planned for completion in 2014
IEEE/IEC 61014
Title: Standard for Reliability Growth Programs
Recent emphasis by the DoD community placed on reliability growth
The international community already has an existing standard that could be leveraged for IEEE use and suppliers to the DoD, without creating a new and redundant standard.
Collaboration on a new joint IEEE/IEC standard for Reliability Growth based on existing International IEC standard 61014:
IEC 61014: “Programmes for reliability growth”.
A PAR (modified from IEEE P1467) was written for this new project, and approved by NesCom in 2010.
Planned for completion in 2014

9. Planned for completion in 2016
PHM Standard (P1856)
Title: Standard Framework for Prognostics and Health Management of Electronic Systems
Purpose:
to classify and define the concepts involved in prognostics and health management of electronic systems
to provide a standard framework that assists practitioners in the development of business cases, and the selection of approaches, methodologies, algorithms, condition monitoring equipment, and strategies for implementing prognostics for electronic systems.
Scope: Describes a normative framework for classifying PHM capability and for planning the development of PHM for a system or product.
PAR approved by NesCom in 2012
Planned for completion in 2016
April 1, 2008

IEEE Basics
The IEEE creates consensus standards through an open process
IEEE standards process has evolved over the past century.
IEEE standards are dynamic documents designed to ensure products and services fit their purpose and perform as intended.
IEEE standards clear the way to commercialize a technology, allowing for interoperability, rapid design, easy installation and testing, and protection for users and the environment.
41 societies, associations, councils and committees
IEEE Standards Association is the IEEE standards development body
More than 360,000 members in ~150 countries

11. IEEE-SA Develops More Standards Than Anyone Else
Summary of IEEE-SA
IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) is the global standards generating organization composed of IEEE employees and IEEE/non-IEEE volunteers.
Active portfolio of over 900 completed standards, recommended practices, and guides (all are called "standards").
More than 400 standards in development
Consider joining IEEE, IEEE-RS and IEEE-SA to develop and sustain reliability standards
