Objective
The objective of the QShop project is to carry out a technology dissemination and awareness action on computer production management systems for small manufacturing companies (SMEs). The proposed methodology for dissemination will be tested and elaborated by application in less favoured regions of Portugal and Spain.
QShop will use the already proven methodology for dissemination (the DonQ method). The consortium will train and diagnose the target group of SMEs with respect to the application of IiM technologies and after the training stage will shortlist a number of SMEs in each region, for in-depth analysis, and implementation projects.
To achieve the proposed objectives, QShop will:
- design and develop a promotional campaign addressing a large audience in the 2 regions
- train 10 companies in the implementation of tools for companies best practices (including the lean manufacturing analysis approach)
- diagnose against an already proven methodology for SME technological diagnosis and company selection, all potential user sites to select the most promising ones for each region
- analyse and prepare 2 SMEs with respect to the implementation of new technologies
- indepth analysis of 2 user pilots and the design of a rough production management tool implementation plan
- prepare a detailed immediate implementation plan for one SME per region
- develop a continuous active dissemination action addressed at SMEs in LFRs and to the EU SME community.
The QShop methodology will be applied, refined and documented along the project's duration and made available for further dissemination and exploitation, throughout the European RTD and industrial communities, immediately after project completion. The key aspects of the methodology are the following:
- Application of a tool for effective dissemination to SMEs in less-favoured regions (LFRs) DonQ Method
- Tool for SMEs quick diagnosis and rating, DIATEC
- Analysis, training and implementation plan design methodology regarding companies best practices.
