Abstract: A method and system are provided to improve industrial engineered systems such as oil well drilling decisions and transfer risk. The method and system each include an interactive decision-support planning tool that aids a user as to how to select a portfolio of engineered systems and entities that the systems will process such as aircraft engines and flights, rigs and reserves, apparatus configuration, apparatus inspection, apparatus on line sensors, dynamic operations decisioning for the apparatus and drill path or asset dispatching and a contractual incentive to allocate risks to stakeholders best positioned to abate them. The decision support will reduce a fleet's financial risk associated with the cost of operations below that achievable without using the interactive decision-support planning tool and/or increase financial return associated with the cost of activity above that achievable without using the interactive decision-support planning tool, such that the financial risk and/or financial return are allocated in a desired manner among a plurality of operations stakeholders.

Abstract: System, method and computer product for performing automated predictive reliability. A data acquisition component acquires service data for a complex system from a data repository. A statistical analysis component generates a statistical model for the service data. A simulation component predicts the reliability of the complex system according to the statistical model. An alert generation component generates alerts when predicted failures determined by the simulation component exceed predetermined alert criteria. A report generation component generates a summary of the analysis performed in the data acquisition, statistical analysis and alert generation components.

Abstract: A system and method for automated risk-based pricing of a vehicle-warranty insurance policy. A vehicle warranty policy request input source receives a request for a vehicle warranty policy. A processor receives the request and uses analytical tools in conjunction with an environmental database, a vehicle database, and a historical database, to service the request. The processor generates a price, conditions and terms for the request using a risk-based pricing algorithm. A system operator reviews the price, conditions and terms and either accepts or rejects the policy request. The system operator also has the option to adjust the price, conditions and terms derived from the processor.
