BQCIS

Managing Complexity in Engineering and Technology

A Technical Risk Assessment (TRA) focuses on identifying, analyzing, and mitigating risks within design, materials, and engineering processes. It ensures that technical assumptions and parameters underpinning complex projects are validated, verified, and reliable.

This assessment is essential in high-technology sectors such as aerospace, automotive, energy, and infrastructure—where design or material failure can result in severe operational or financial impact.

BQCIS brings deep multidisciplinary expertise—combining engineering, materials science, and reliability analysis—to deliver evidence-based insights. Using structured approaches such as FMEA, HAZID, and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), our experts uncover potential weaknesses before they escalate into costly failures.

Key Technical Risk Activities

Design & Process FMEA Facilitation

BQCIS experts facilitate Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) workshops with cross-functional teams to identify potential failure modes in design and production. Early detection of weaknesses allows teams to apply corrective design controls, ensuring reliability and manufacturability before launch.

Technical & Engineering Risk Review

Our multidisciplinary engineers perform independent reviews of material selection, mechanical design, and critical calculations. This technical due diligence ensures conformance to design intent, environment suitability, and long-term reliability, reducing the likelihood of unforeseen technical failures.

Key Benefits of Technical Risk Assessment

Success Story

Design FMEA Prevents Major Product Recall

The Challenge:

A leading consumer electronics manufacturer faced concerns about mechanical integrity in its new product line but lacked formal validation data to support launch readiness.

Our Solution:

BQCIS facilitated a comprehensive Design FMEA session with the client’s R&D and manufacturing teams. The assessment identified critical stress points in the device housing likely to fail under repeated impact conditions.

The Result:

The design team implemented a simple reinforcement bracket and improved assembly torque specifications, preventing a latent defect that could have caused widespread product failure post-launch. The fix saved the company millions in warranty costs and protected brand reputation.
