Background


Project Objectives Strategy/Technology Application/SectorNet-challenge(229287)

To develop new concepts and tools to support SMEs, in creating and efficiently operating non-hierarchical collaborative business networks for complex products (high variety and low volume), including real time decision making and monitoring.

Improve competiveness by increasing companies reactivity on dynamic and global markets with differentiated products.

Textile and apparel (including wearable technologies); Foot-wear and Machine tools.

CONVERGE(228746)

To provide a framework and tools for exchanging tactical and strategic information for decision making in non hierarchical supply-chains networks.

Improve companies flexibility to changing requirements and improve collaboration across the supply chain.

Electronic industry.

REMPLANET(229333)

To develop methods, guidelines and tools for the implementation of the Resilient Multi-Plant Networks Model in non-hierarchical manufacturing networks, characterised by non-centralised decision making.

Integration of the customer driven innovation influence and responsiveness to customised market demands and strategic innovation-renewal - Operational flexibility-agility, decentralised and Collaborative Decision Making.

Machinery and equipment enterprise networks.

inTime(229132)

To establish an automated negotiation mechanism for delivery reliability by using the former developed communication platform MyOpenFactory for order management processes.

Improve the global partners network collaboration and efficiency.

Machinery and equipment industry.

Background


Project Objectives Strategy/Technology Application/SectorSMCS(260090)

To develop methods and innovative enabling technologies towards a personalized, customer oriented and eco-efficient manufacturing, across a broad range of sectors. To present Customization as one of the main driving forces behind the future success of Sustainability.

Specific methodologies and tools to handle Mass Customization implementation for supporting real networked environment, based on a common strategy and appropriate Supply Chain, meant to empower mass customization along the entire value chain.

All sectors.

Hierarchical Manufacturing NetworksThe traditional hierarchical manufacturing networks are based on centralised models, where some of the involved actors must adapt themselves to the constraints defined by the dominant ones.

Overview of the Initiative


6

Non-Hierarchical Manufacturing NetworksIn the new global market, competitiveness and growth of industry highly rely on the move toward innovative high performance industrial systems and agile networked enterprises through the creation and consolidation of Non-Hierarchical Manufacturing Networks of multi-national SMEs in front of networks based on powerful large-scale companies.



7

Centralised Decision Making modelsReal-world experiences of such models have revealed some major problems due to the centralized vision of the supply chain and the sub-optimal performance of the centralized decision making.



For current highly dynamic markets, this generates major inefficiencies in the operation of the whole supply chain.

8

Decentralised Decision Making models Centralized networks performance can be significantly improved through more harmonious and equitable peer-to-peer inter-enterprise relationships, conforming a decentralised and collaborative decision making model.



9

Non-Hierarchical Manufacturing Networks benefits

Enhanced overall competitiveness, innovation and adaptability in today and tomorrow’s enterprise partnership scenario.Cross-country and inter-enterprise interchanges, building networked enterprises that are supported by stable relationship schemas and modern co-operation & co-ordination business paradigms.Cost reduction, through overall optimisation and elimination of inefficiencies of processes, stocks, flows, plans, etc.Companies’ human resources improved quality of work and skills, through improved knowledge management and dissemination, better understanding of dynamics and flows, and clearer definition of roles and responsibilities.End consumers’ advantages, mainly in terms of diminishment of products time-to-market and costs.SMEs empowerment and enhanced accessibility to networked enterprises.Optimisation of materials, wastes and energy consumption based on more rational and homogeneous production and supply plans, stocks and workforce balance.



10

Decentralised Decision Making models advantages

Improve the commitment of each node to the overall goals of the networked enterprise.Improve the communication, co-operation and co-ordination between participating companies.Consider all the components of the supply chain as actors of the same importance, as the chain always breaks because of its weakest node, and must therefore be as homogeneous and stable as possible.Empower the role of human resources, as they acquire higher responsibilities and get really involved in supply chain-wide business processes and decisions.Develop knowledge networks and repositories, which are distributed and at the same time integrated throughout the whole supply chain.Help SMEs to position themselves adequately on the global market through their active participation in value chains exploiting their core competencies.Transform networked organisations in order for them to operate as a unique entity, but with the advantages of plurality in competencies and cultures.



11

The goal of the iNet·IMS initiative is the extension of scope of the EC-FP7 funded projects REMPLANET, Net-challenge, CONVERGE, inTime and SMCS, with respect to IMS-specific tasks and results.
