A method for predictive analysis of the performance and reliability of an assembly includes measuring at least one force associated with construction of the assembly, and comparing the measured force to a predetermined expected force range, wherein the predetermined expected force range is determined by measuring at least one force associated with the construction of a plurality of similar assemblies, and determining an average force profile for the plurality of assemblies based on the plurality of measurements taken.

1. A method for predictive analysis of the performance and reliability of an assembly, said method comprising:measuring at least one force associated with construction of the assembly; and comparing the measured force to a predetermined expected force range, wherein the predetermined expected force range is determined by measuring at least one force associated with the construction of a plurality of similar assemblies, and determining an average force profile for the plurality of assemblies based on the plurality of measurements taken. 2. A method in accordance with claim 1 wherein measuring at least one force comprises:measuring at least one force associated with construction of the assembly over a period of time; and recording the at least one measured force for the period of time. 3. A method in accordance with claim 1 further comprising determining the expected force range using the average force profile.4. A method in accordance with claim 1 wherein comparing the measured force to a predetermined expected force range comprises displaying a pass signal on a display when the measured force is within the expected force range.5. A method in accordance with claim 1 wherein comparing the measured force to a predetermined expected force range comprises displaying a fail signal on a display when the measured force is outside the expected force range.6. A method in accordance with claim 1 further comprising qualification testing the assembly if the measured force is within the expected force range.7. A method in accordance with claim 6 further comprising comparing results of the qualification testing with historic qualification data.8. A method in accordance with claim 1 further comprising:identifying at least one sub-event during construction of the assembly; and determining at least one target box force/time threshold for the sub-event. 9. A method in accordance with claim 8 wherein the assembly is a conduit fitting assembly including a collar, an end fitting, and a conduit, said identifying at least one sub-event comprising identifying at least one of yield of the collar, yield of the end fitting, and compression of the conduit.10. A method in accordance with claim 8 wherein determining at least one target box force threshold comprises determining at least one target box force threshold using upper specification limits (USL) and lower specification limits (LSL).11. A method in accordance with claim 8 further comprising using the at least one target box force threshold to determine the expected force range.12. A system for predictive analysis of the performance and reliability of an assembly, said system comprising:a machine for constructing an assembly; a measuring device coupled to said machine, said measuring device configured to measure at least one force associated with construction of the assembly; and a data collection device coupled to said measuring device, said data collection device configured to compare the measured force to a predetermined expected force range wherein the expected force range is determined using an average force profile for a plurality of similar assemblies based on a plurality of measurements taken for the plurality of assemblies by said measuring device. 13. A system in accordance with claim 12 wherein said measuring device configured to measure at least one force associated with construction of the assembly over a period of time, said data collection device configured to record the at least one measured force for the period of time.14. A system in accordance with claim 12 wherein said data collection device comprises a display and is configured to:display a pass signal on the display when the measured force is within the expected force range; and display a fail signal on the display when the measured force is outside the expected force range. 15. A system in accordance with claim 12 wherein said measuring device configured to measure at least one force associated with at least one sub-event of the construction of the assembly, said data collection device configured to determine at least one target box force threshold for the at least one sub-event.16. A method for predictive analysis of the performance and reliability of a conduit fitting assembly including a collar, an end fitting, and a conduit compressed between the collar and the end fitting, said method comprising:measuring at least one force associated with compression of the conduit fitting assembly; measuring at least one force associated with the construction of a plurality of similar conduit fitting assemblies; determining an average force profile for the plurality of assemblies based on the plurality of measurements taken; determining the expected force range using the average force profile; and comparing the at least one measured force to a predetermined expected force range. 17. A method in accordance with claim 16 further comprising:qualification testing the conduit fitting assembly if the at least one measured force is within the expected force range; and comparing the results of the qualification testing with historic qualification data.
