- Additional information
- The capability demonstrated in this toolset was a major contributing factor towards Ford’s Industry 4.0 manufacturing and maintenance global programme (>$1B) and traceability standards based on solution incorporated into Ford’s Global Bill of Process defining best practices for manufacturing programmes (Powertrain Manufacturing, Ford of Europe, supporting letter for ICS). In addition, the predicted reduction in energy usage has provided the capability to reduce further the negative impact of manufacturing machinery energy demands on the environment, minimising company fines from the UK Climate Change Levy and reducing the demand on UK infrastructure.
