When Swedish Marine consultant Arne Ullman set up a forum to share information and risk expertise in October 1973, little did he know he was laying the foundations for one of the world’s most significant safety and reliability organisations. It was this forum – the European Reliability Data Association (EUReDatA) – which would form the beginnings of ESReDA.

(ESReDA) is a European Association established in 1992 to promote research, application and training in Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety (RAMS). The Association provides a forum for the exchange of information, data and current research in Safety and Reliability and a focus for specialist expertise.
ESReDA's most prominent activities are its project groups and its seminars. Each project group has a specific theme and lasts for 2-3 years. Normally a book is produced reflecting the work of the PG. Some 10 books have been published, and are listed on our publications webpage. Current PG's have their own webpages whch can be accessed on this site. ESReDA organises 2 European Seminars each year and these are hosted by different ESReDA members across the continent. Seminar proceedings are edited by the JRC-ISPRA, Italy. The whole European Community is represented in the ESReDA membership. The development of ESReDA in Eastern Europe is a special point of action.
Membership of ESReDA is open to organisations, private or governmental institutes, industry researchers and consultants, who are active in the field of Safety and Reliability. Membership fees are currently 1000 EURO for organisations and 500 EURO for universities and individual members. Special sponsoring or associate membership is also available. |
