  1. Aeronautics and SpaceNorges forskningsråd, Torsdag 15. januar 2004 Experience from EU projects Overview of projects and partner search Kjell A. Bengtsson EPM Technology Kjell.Bengtsson@epmtech.jotne.com http://www.epmtech.jotne.com

  2. EPM Technology Universal Solutions for Interoperability. Data modeling, exchange, sharing, ODBMS. EXPRESS Data Manager™, world-wide.

  3. 1400 licenses at 300 customers IAI

  4. Agenda • Our EU experience • The new EU/FP6 Vivace project • What to consider

  5. Background It started with an idea back in 1991 and resulted in a new project “PRODEX” which ran from July 1992 through June 1995. ( supported by NFR ) EU projects has proven to be a good vehicle for joint R&D efforts and to create new business opportunitles.

  6. Other EPM EU Background Esprit 20408 VEGA Esprit 25677 WIT Esprit 26883 VePrim EU/FP5 Merci, Globeman, eConstruct (EPM has also provided technology to other EU programs and also US based DARPA programs)

  7. VIVACE Value Improvement through a Virtual Aeronautical Collaborative Enterprise VIVACE is a project set-up in the framework of AECMA addressing aeronautics' Vision 2020 objectives to contribute significantly to fulfilling 3 specific targets of the aeronautics industry Strategic Research Agenda: 1/ Halve the time to market for new products with the help of advanced electronic analytical, design, manufacturing and maintenance process, methods & tools 2/ Increase the integration of the supply chain into the network 3/ Maintain a steady and continuous fall in travel charges through substantial cuts in operating costs.

  8. VIVACE Value Improvement through a Virtual Aeronautical Collaborative Enterprise VIVACE will develop advanced capabilities (Knowledge Enabled Engineering, Multidisciplinary Design and Optimisation, Design to Decision Objectives, Engineering Data Management, Distributed Information Systems Infrastructure for Large Enterprise and Collaborative Hub for Heterogeneous Enterprises) applied on real case engineering and business scenarios from the aircraft and engine sectors. The main result of VIVACE will be an Aeronautical Collaborative Design Environment and associated Processes, Models and Methods to design an aircraft and its engines as a whole, providing to the aeronautics supply chain in an extended enterprise, virtual products with all requested functionality and components in each phase of the product engineering life cycle.

  9. VIVACE Value Improvement through a Virtual Aeronautical Collaborative Enterprise It will last 4 years and be organised into 3 technical sub projects dealing with the Aircraft, the Engine and Advanced Capabilities that will federate all developments. A fourth sub project will take care of management and innovation issues. VIVACE will start from past experiences and results gained in concurrent Engineering such as ENHANCE and will bring together 55 partners from industry, research institutes, universities and technology providers. Exploitation will take place via the design of new aircraft and engines.

  10. Why attending an EU R&D Project ? • To get in contact with user and their request to develop new solutions. • Contributions from the leading European research institutes. • To test out new concepts and deploy new technology • Co-funding of own development

  11. What is important ? • Consider teams that have strong relations to AECMA, e.g big brand names. (Airbus, Dassault, MTU, BAE Systems etc) and lobbying in Brussels is secured • Be prepared to travel and spend many hours on a bid. • Has to be part of your own product development plan. • Define IPR prior to contract • Consider to include other Norwegian partners

  12. Summary • EPM is a small company • EPM is based in Norway • EPM uses EU R&D projects strategically to develop contacts with possible customers and partnerships with the leading research organizations. • EPM is very selective on partners and project proposals • We have success in the EU/R&D programs

  13. Questions ? Please feel to contact EPM at any time. Whish for the future would be that Norway had a full time representative for Aerospace in Brussels and/or an Industry Representative in AECMA or AeroSME. Kjell A.
