The Systems Reliability Service (SRS), now incorporated into the National Centre of Systems Reliability (NCSR), was formed 13 years ago as a commercial undertaking at the instigation of the then Minister of Technology, to act as a focal point for the development of reliability technology from its early beginnings in the Nuclear Industry and even earlier in such specialised areas as the instrument and aircraft industries. NCSR was also required to encourage research at Universities and other organisations, and a commercial service was offered to industry for solving various reliability and availability problems. The scope of such work has developed to include hazard assessment and risk analysis of major installations and systems. The Canvey Island Report is a UK example, but the earlier USA WASH-1400 and the more recent German Risk Study are other independent examples which indicate the use of powerful tools of present reliability technology. The basis of all this work is data, and it is around aspects of this that the present paper is framed. In particular the data bank unit, being the data-handling, process and analysis group of the NCSR is described.
