This paper focuses on customer-centered reliability models and measures for multi-state systems with multi-state components. A review of general models which capture the customer's experience with the product is presented. An approach is given to develop the system structure function using equivalent classes and develop reliability bonds. In addition to measures and models, ideas are given for potential applications of these models to infrastructure problems such as transportation, computer network, supply chain, communication systems and network, reliability.
