Abstract: A method of producing vehicles comprises: in a vehicle production process, manufacturing vehicle components of different types, and assembling the vehicle components to form vehicles; creating a set of vehicle records, each being a record of one of the vehicles entering active service; performing vehicle repairs on a subset of the vehicles after they have entered active service; creating a respective record of each of the vehicle repairs, each of which comprises or indicates a vehicle age or usage value, and records a vehicle component fault identified in the vehicle repair; receiving at a data processing stage the vehicle records and vehicle repair records, wherein a predictive algorithm executed at the data processing stage processes the received records so as to, for each type of vehicle component: 1) identify a respective set of the vehicle repair records relating to that type of vehicle component, and 2) use the respective set of vehicle repair records to predict a respective number of or resource value

Abstract: An electronics chassis comprises an electronics module residing in the chassis and fronted by a multi-piece faceplate system. The multi-piece faceplate system includes a faceplate and a faceplate assembly. The faceplate assembly includes an ejection lever pivotally coupled to the electronics module. The ejection lever includes an ejection latch coupled to the faceplate assembly. The ejection latch is configured to facilitate retention of the electronics module within the chassis when said faceplate assembly is in a closed position. The ejection latch is further configured to facilitate ejection of the electronics module from the chassis when the faceplate assembly is in an open position.
