The testing tools, analysis methods, etc. The problem with the implementation of reliability often doesn't come from the engineers; it often comes from the organizational leaders. The leaders don't translate all the factors of the program, time to market, cost point, features, and reliability to the teams in the same manner that the company holds these goals.
