HALT and HASS (AccESS): From Theory to Practice

ESPEC Qualmark offers a wide range of on-site services specifically designed to ensure best practices are applied to HALT/HASS system use for maximum returns. Because AccESS (Accelerated Environmental Stress Screen) technology is unlike customary burn-in testing, the approach is unique to test engineers used to traditional methods. Like any disruptive technology, it requires acceptance, buy-in, and full understanding of Accelerated Stress Testing goals from practitioners to derive full benefit. The objective of ESPEC Qualmark Professional Services is to add to the value derived from accelerated testing by tailoring services to deliver customer-specific program optimization.
