Order integrity and accountability assume very high roles in meeting customer requirements, especially when nuclear applications are involved. Being able to trace production steps through to testing of individual lots of material is critical for quality control, auditing purposes, as well as fingerprinting cause and effect in failure analysis.

This paper will review several failure analyses to highlight the potential capabilities with good process accountability in the resolution of customer problems. Complementary analytical and testing techniques further assist in failure analysis.
