We propose a Bayesian approach for assessing the reliability of multicomponent systems. Our models allow us to evaluate system, subsystem, and component reliability using multilevel information. Data are collected over time, and include binary, lifetime, and degradation data. We illustrate the methodology through two examples and discuss extensions. Supplementary materials are available online.
