Made Smarter Innovation - Materials Made Smarter Research Centre
The Made Smarter Innovation Centre will deliver multidisciplinary research in the area of Digital Manufacturing.
Project overview
The Made Smarter Innovation Centre will deliver multidisciplinary research in the area of Digital Manufacturing. The Centre will work with academic, commercial and innovation partners to drive the research needed to solve many of the fundamental challenges limiting the development and adoption of digital tools in materials and manufacturing. The centre is being led by Professor Todd (Materials and Science Engineering at University of Sheffield), with the Institute of Work Psychology leading the work package focusing on social and organisational change in digital transformations. Stakeholder involvement in the design of these new, transformative manufacturing processes is key to their successful implementation and so Institute of Work Psychology will develop, test and refine a toolkit that helps organisations to manage the design, implementation and evaluation of these digital transformations.
