Advancing Digitalisation – Expression of Interest
IDE has invited Expressions of Interest proposals for fast start projects to support the UK Advancing Digitalisation Mission.
This call for proposals has now been closed.
The exponential rise of product complexity and increasing customer, environmental and legislative demands requires the adoption of new and advanced digital technologies and best-in class engineering capabilities to deliver automotive products to market better, faster and cheaper.
We are seeking ideas and proposals for innovative and collaborative Proof of Concept projects that help to demonstrate the clear value and benefit of digitalisation to the automotive industry, provide a legacy for future exploitation and address key challenges in the following areas:
​
​
Areas of focus
-
New Digital Engineering Capabilities
-
Revolutionised Product and Service Creation Processes
-
Progressive Assurance, Regulation and Standards
-
Co-creative Infrastructure and Environments
-
Transformed Enterprise Cultures and Workforces
