Digital Value

Status: Idea
Creation date: 29-01-2018

Project objectives:

Digital manufacturing platforms play an increasing role in valuing new and different technologies, data and services to deal with market pressures and make the manufacturing companies more competitive. The development and establishment of digital platform for the connected smart production facilities of future will allow linking high performance and product quality with cost-effective productivity, realizing reconfigurable, adaptive and evolving factories capable of small and large-scale production in an economically viable way.

In line with the grand challenge, "Excellence in manufacturing: zero-defect processes and products", the project aims at combining convenience, quality and safety of the products with the adoption of key digital technologies (e.g. IoT, cloud, Big Data and digital printing) which will permit not only to launch new products and services but also to stimulate the innovation in Europe by engaging the suppliers along the whole value chains. Indeed, the integration of diverse digital technologies and the partnerships among industries, suppliers, Universities and innovation centers represent the unique winning business model to find out the opportunities hidden into each phase of the value chain: from product design to production, from marketing to post-sales.

General objectives of the project will be related to:

  • Platform building, which will offer functionalities generically adaptable in multiple contexts to support various types of applications and services;
  • Large scale piloting to adapt the digital platform to specific industrial needs and validate their relevance for such needs, in order to foster take-up and large-scale deployment;
  • Ecosystem building by involving different players (e.g. SMEs and Big companies) which will permit fostering the take-up of digital platform and exploiting the relative economic social benefits;
  • Standardization, fundamental for accelerating the adoption process of the digital platform.
