Training project of new operations model for small workshops in ceramics

Objective

OBJECTIVES
For economic reasons, large ceramics companies have gradually homogenised their product range. However, there are opportunities and a growing demand for SMEs to produce diverse, high-quality ceramic goods. It would be possible to meet this demand by creating a network of companies which are highly specialised in design, manufacture and marketing and which are additionally well versed in the use of various leading technologies. The project therefore proposes to develop training modules for SMEs in the ceramics industry, which are intended to enable them to acquire the qualifications necessary for enhancing their competitiveness.

ACTIVITIES
Firstly, by pooling experiences, requirements already identified and methods already developed, the companies and the training centres participating in the project will develop new training modules. In co-operation with several universities, training centres and companies, a production network allowing each company to develop a specific aspect in the production chain will then be set up. This is intended to allow new technologies to be transferred more easily to craft companies.

PRODUCTS
Creation of a methodological manual dealing with the creation of a production network. It will provide information on how to select relevant partners, how to organise production in a network, how to provide instruction on the use of this network and how to evaluate the results. A training module intended for SMEs in the ceramics sector will also be created.
