Nowadays the complexity of several industrial procedures and the equipment required establishes that not all assets failure patterns may be easily handled through maintenance service activities done after its manufacturing and use. In order to avoid all kind of high impact failures to use the product, there must be a stage of elimination by removing some maintenance needs, and it should be done considering their own foundations from the very first moment where the asset is designed and produced. These failures might emerge in production, quality, safety, environment and costs, among others, which are hard to identify and to control. All this requires different concepts and tools in industrial maintenance service and Engineering reliability straight to designing area. Hence, the right management of projects related to industrial equipment designing is essential to delimit the service life of them. Besides, customer’s satisfaction gets increased this way. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to introduce a methodology to measure the credibility factor of Industrial equipment designing projects management; which uses a descriptive methodology along with a design based on fieldwork. As a result, we could identify the elements and practice of the operational reliability that must be taken into account when starting a new project related to Industrial assets. Furthermore, we could identify all stages involved when designing an asset including several reliability tools in order to assess the products´ systems criticality. It also allowed us to identify its functional profile, potential failures and the analysis of reliability, maintainability and availability.

Keywords : criticality; design; functional Profile; maintenance; reliability.
