Management resources are focused on measuring instruments re­lated to growing fields such as mobile Internet, WDM and digital broadcasting, System solutions, precision measurement business and device businesses. New products are planned to provide solu­tions whenever required by users.

To realize a design with high-safety and high-reliability, several levels of design assessments are performed. Power consumption is re­duced from the viewpoint of environment considerations, starting with evaluation of specifications, legal regulations and parts used. Evaluations are also implemented for improving the recycling ratio, and the design quality is improved.

Anritsu utilizes a design process that targets customer satisfaction.

In addition to safety, reliability and environment considerations of test models for new products, functions and performance are verified by an operating environmental conditions test and operability, uncer­tainty, maintainability and flexibility of design are evaluated fully. After passing these tests, the products can be commercialized.

Based on our policy, "post-processing is the customer," the product is manufactured by experienced employees according to the work­manship standards. In the adjustment and inspection stage, auto­matic measurement is promoted. An expert will be in charge of the adjustment if high-skilled adjustment is required.

In each service department, traceability assurance by calibrations based on high-technical capabilities, as well as rapid repair and pre­ventive maintenance are performed.

For parts generally used in each measuring instrument, quality im­provement and standardization are actively promoted. All field data is analyzed, arranged and completely made known to each depart­ment while required actions are taken for reliability improvement. In addition, failure rate, MTBF observation and parts failure rate are calculated based on this information.

As defined in the International Vocabulary of Basic and General Terms in Metrology (VIM; 1993), traceability is defined as "the prop­erty of the result of a measurement or the value of a standard where­by it can be related to stated references, usually national or interna­tional standards, through an unbroken chain of comparisons." Anritsu's system to ensure traceability is shown below. Measurements made by Anritsu's laboratory's are traceable to na­tional, international, or intrinsic standards, where such standards are available.
