A product build was going on and a failure was detected. I was the only person looking at the data who could identify that the failure was a false reading. Including a one or two talented engineers.
The build was worth at least $80,000--which would have been thrown in the garbage. Corrective actions could have easily added another $40,000.
What makes this a bit of a sad story--the data that I analyzed is typical of that described early on in a sophomore level mechanical engineering course, and a cornerstone of solid body mechanics.
A one-eyed man is king in the land of blindness.
