BQR has developed the fiXtresstm - a Computer Aided Stress and Schematic Analysis EDA tool which perform Electrical Stress Simulation, Stress Derating, Thermal Analysis and Schematic Modeling Analysis which integrates design errors detection with power, stress, thermal, service life and warranty period prediction on the schematic-level, in one analysis tool.

fiXtress accelerates Time-to-Market, provides aggressive cost reduction and enhances products' reliability and performance by detecting and eliminating early in the design cycle, stress related errors while the design changes are still flexible and before fab-out and even before layout. Customers can use the fiXtress on local computers or as a service as a Design for Reliability (DfR).

The software was developed by users and was tested by hundreds of project performed by BQR engineers before the tool was introduced in the market.
BQR was established in 1989 and provides Reliability, Availability, Maintenance and Safety tools (RAMS), Integrated Logistic Support (ILS), consulting services and software tools for the defense and commercial electronic industry.

In addition, BQR have developed the CARE (Computer Aided Reliability Engineering) and the apmOptimizer software tools. The CARE help developers to improve products reliability and the apmOptimizer help developers to introduce the optimal maintenance concept for the product.
