DfR Solutions was initially formed by several senior scientists and staffers from the University of Maryland's Center for Advanced Life Cycle Engineering (CALCE) for Electronic Product and Systems, and has grown to include personnel with backgrounds from several industries (automotive, avionics, contract manufacturing, industrial controls, and superconductors).
The personnel at DfR are motivated to provide companies maximum value in their reliability activities and to promote openness and exchange of information.
