Complex failures are just that – complex. So why should you expect one team of experts to be the right team every time someone calls for a failure analysis? At Kevin Kennedy Associates we know that tough problems require the right people with the proper experience, knowledge, and training to quickly and efficiently determine a solution to your problem.
Failure analysis and root cause determination demand the highest levels of expertise, and that’s exactly what we offer. Our experts average over 25 years of experience, and every single one of them is backed by a team of professionals who work together to make sure your needs are being met.
Our in-depth failure analysis team can be on scene anywhere in the world in a short period of time. Our teams span the complete spectrum from automotive to biomedical, from construction to consumer products, and electronics industries and beyond. If it exists, our experts will know about it or will have the fundamental knowledge to perform an independent analysis.
When the situation warrants, our experts will implement scientific methods that may include non-destructive testing, visual and microscopic inspection, and/or other scientific methods. In situations where much of the physical evidence has been destroyed (fires or automobile crashes, for example), they will employ a speculative approach supported by analytical field tools.
Because our network includes over 600 minds worldwide, we can assemble a team of experts in nearly any area of failure analysis including root cause, coating, defect, component, and engine. And thanks to our Rapid Response approach, we can begin the process in mere minutes.
