  Engineering Safety LTD RAM analysis can be applied at various stages of the life cycle. Pre-FEED (i.e. design conceptualisation) – RAM analysis can be used to compare various design options that are being considered through quantification of the production output of each option. Conducting a RAM analysis at this stage, whilst the design is still being finalised is known to reduce the cost and schedule impact on the project than if conducted at a later stage. FEED – At the FEED stage, critical equipment’s are identified which could cause significant production losses. A RAM analysis would normally be conducted on these critical equipment’s in order to optimise the equipment configuration and identify the requirements of any further spares or equipment redundancies in order to optimise the availability of the system. Detailed Engineering – At the detailed engineering stage it is likely that the design is frozen with minimal changes. A RAM study at this point would allow the client t
