Original Abstract

The article deals with a method which provides unbiased evaluation of vehicle reliability. This method was developed for the needs of the Army of the Czech Republic, as means of facilitating decision making in the acquisitions process. The method evaluates maintenance costs which are closely associated with the reliability level of vehicle and which usually represent a significant part of the total ownership cost of each vehicle. The authors of the method have created a model which expresses relations between maintenance costs and indicators of vehicle reliability. The model enables comparison of reliability level of different vehicles during evaluation of alternative acquisitions.
