What does Life Cycle Design mean?

A Life Cycle Design is a design philosophy intended to ensure quality and durability throughout the entire life cycle of a product. Both in the period prior to production, during production and in the period after production, the products, the various components and the process must be designed to best support quality and sustainability. In addition to setting up a Life Cycle Design, Life Cycle Management is also needed to ensure the longevity of the products. In this blog, we will tell you more about Life Cycle Design and Life Cycle Management at Confed.

What does Life Cycle Management at Confed entail?

Life Cycle Management at Confed can be divided into three facets:


  • Realizing Cost Savings. Thanks to our understanding of part life and availability, experience in repairs and an extensive international network for scarce parts, we can realize significant cost savings for you.
  • Inventory. We inventory the components and identify expected end-of-life, repair options, cost and replaceability. 
  • Repair and refurbishment. We inventory the potential repair project and map out the expected repair options and associated costs along with replaceability.


We take care of the entire repair process. We are also able to set up functional testing so that delivery can be carried out according to your requirements.

Life Cycle Design at Confed

Setting up and implementing a thorough Life Cycle Design for your products is necessary to ensure product durability and quality. We can support you in optimizing the life cycle of your products. In the development phase, when assessing ''Bills Of Materials'', during production and in the after sales period. We do this by analyzing the components to be used up to and including monitoring the availability of spare parts. By looking at different phases of development, we maintain an overview and can guarantee the desired service life of your products. 


Renewal and maintenance budgets are generally limited. We give you the ability to control costs. At any moment in your product's life cycle, you have insight into its life span, deliverability, repair possibilities and costs. In this way, you give yourself room to invest where it is really needed. Would you like to know more about Life Cycle Design and Life Cycle Management at Confed and what we can do for you?
