  1. COMPETITIVE AND SUSTAINABLE GROWTH PROGRAMME • Shared-cost RTD And Demonstration Project • Concerted Action/Thematic Network • Proposal number: GTC1-2002-73009 • Project acronym: evitherm • Project full title: The European Virtual Institute for Thermal Metrology • Duration: 36 Months, starting at 01 January 2003 • Project Co-ordinator: NPL • Contractors: ARCCNR-IMGC • LNE • PTB • WP3 - To enable EVITherM to transfer knowledge to meet the needs of Industry • and communicate effectively to different regions • Co-leaders : IMGC, Franco Pavese / PTB, Joachim Fischer

  2. Objectives of WP3 (IMGC / PTB) Dividing European manufacturers into industrial sectors with common thermo-physical needs and setting up representatives for each sector Investigating the differing regional needs of the specified industrial sectors within Europe and developing mechanisms which will enable EVITherM to communicate effectively to each region Establishing regional platforms to facilitate access to EVITherM for SMEs in countries with languages different from English. The regional platforms will be designed to encourage interested parties in eastern European countries that are applying for EC membership and countries outside the EC with languages different from English to take an active part in EVITherM Determining and implementing databases of information required by industry, other than the technology covered in WPs 4-9, such as manufacturers and suppliers of thermal equipment and services and appropriate training sources throughout Europe Assessing the need for specific Internet based training packages for selected industrial sectors and developing these where necessary. In addition, e-mail based discussion groups will be developed to monitor the needs and views of all EVITherM users

  3. Agenda WP3 , Monday, 17 May 10:00 Welcome, discussion of agenda (PTB) 10:15 Task 3.1 : Compile specific information needs - presentations of the compilations of contacts and networks by sector coordinators each approx. 15 min (CERAM, DaimlerChrysler, DSM, EADS, Nestle, Testo, RGU, TC, …) - discussion and harmonisation of next steps 13:00 lunch break 14:00 Task 3.2 : Define the needs of regional SMEs and of eastern European countries - determine the form and content of regional platforms (SMU, IMGC) - preparation of report defining the regions (IMGC) D3.2, month 18 Task 3.3 : Compile region specific data - compile best practice guides and file them by language (SMU, IMGC) - preparation of report defining form & content of regional platforms D3.3, month 20 Task 3.4 : Organise translation of the web site content into regional languages - methods for phased insertion of data in the regional platforms (IMGC) D3.4

  4. Agenda WP3, Monday, 17 May, continued 14:30 coffee break 15:00 Task 3.5 : Databases of manufacturers of thermal equipment and suppliers (not covered by databases in WP4 to 9), service providers associated with thermal technologies, training courses (TC, IPCF, NMi-VSL) D3.5 - Review of the compilation obtained so far 15:15 Task 3.6 : Implement a system of determining industry's needs for knowledge and training (UNIMI) - Definition of the industrial needs (according to the received questionnaires and the different contacts, RGU) - Feasibility of e-training - Development of training packages - Cost for the corresponding development of e-training - Diffusion of this e-training on the website (proposal of ATHENA) 15:45 Task 3.7 : Develop a newsletter and e-mail forum (TC, PLG) - Situation about the newsletter : publication of the first newsletter, editorial committee - Situation about the e-mail forum : construction of the first e-mail forum by ATHENA for evaluation 16:00 end of meeting

  5. WP3 : new members in 2004 (in blue : existing industrial members of the forum)

  6. Industry Sector Coordinators

  7. Tasks of Industry Sector Coordinators Identify the thermal knowledge requirements for that sector Identifying all of the main industrial associations and trade publications for that sector Identifying contacts for the sector in other regions Identifying lists of businesses within that sector Building up a network of contacts within the sector Flag data templates for industry sectors

  8. Status of Material Group List

  9. Tasks of Industry Sector Coordinators Today : different approaches seen Aim : Common strategy for all industry coordinators What is to be done with the collected addresses ?Compile them in the common data templates ?Contact persons individually ?Central action of evitherm ? Building up a network of contacts within the sector……Using dedicated “confidential” addresses ?Privacy problem ?

  10. Common data template

  11. Contacts

  12. New countries in the EU • encourage interested parties in eastern European countries which are currently applying for EU membership to take part actively in EVITherM June 2004 : Cyprus Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Malta Poland Slovak Republic Slovenia

  13. Regional Coordinators
