Smart People + Smart Process = Smart Factory

我们的世界必须改变粮食生产和供应是我们社会的支柱-目前也是不可持续的。当前气候和环境变化的挑战是一种威胁，数字技术在促进解决方案中的作用将在该项目中得到展示。该项目汇集了来自工厂，运输和办公室职能的220多名员工，由Raynor Foods牵头。它将为他们提供有意义的信息，改变实践和行为，从而利用游戏化研究来构建“碳英雄”游戏，报告可衡量的可持续成果。项目财团和赠款申请合作伙伴是一个高绩效的团队，拥有创新领导者，学者，企业和大学，他们都是多个奖项的获奖者，在提供变革和颠覆性创新方面有着良好的记录。该项目包括已在全球和国家建立声誉的非赠款申请合作伙伴。申请补助的伙伴如下。** Raynor Foods Ltd --联盟领导\*Software Imaging LTD\* 林肯大学--国家食品制造中心\* 剑桥大学--制造研究所 ** 非赠款索赔系统提供商 **\*Siemens Group UK\*Elcomponent LTD\*Tascomp LTD我们的项目将部署和融合一系列数字技术到Raynor Foods位于切姆斯福德的三明治工厂，实时测量CO2 e足迹，并使所有运营人员都能看到，以便他们采取行动减少它。IDT的综合使用将确保所有工厂流程和资产都是可测量、可追溯、可跟踪和可控制的。这将提供资源和CO2 e排放的即时测量，并将其与员工福利集成。将流程和人员数据结合在一起具有变革性，使员工能够拥有并真实的采取补救措施。流程和人员数据将使用AI/ML输入半自动管理系统（SAMS）。SAMS将帮助员工同时减少工厂能源消耗，处理废物，并监控和提高员工福利和参与度。LettUs Grow经双方同意将退出该项目。有关问题、决定和成就的详细说明载于参考资料A。总而言之，这是由于技术准备程度不够成熟，业务战略方向的变化使Drop and Grow单元的开发变得不可行。不幸的是，我们没有找到替代品。因此，我们需要完全删除WP 4，子工作流5“沙拉配料处理”，包括基础设施集成，并寻求重新分配资源，以完善和扩展用例，通过核心制造流程中的流程效率和废物减少来实现CO2 e减排目标。这增加了由超宽带网格技术促进的替代范围，从而实现了一系列测量CO2 e和警报/行动减少的用例应用，编程能力降低集成和实施的风险，加上可开发的产品输出，用于更广泛的行业应用，以实现CO2 e减排目标。这种整合流程和人员的变革性方法将使温室气体排放总量减少目前基线活动的三分之一。要实现可持续发展和智能工厂，需要聪明的人和聪明的流程。

Our world must change. Food production and supply is the backbone of our society -- it is also currently unsustainable. Current challenges of climate and environmental change are a threat and the role of digital technology in facilitating solutions will be demonstrated in this Project.This project brings together over 220 members of staff from the factory, transport and office functions in the consortium lead, Raynor Foods. It will provide them with meaningful information that will change practice and behaviour so that measurable sustainable outcomes will be reported utilising gamification research to build 'Carbon Hero' games.The Project consortium and grant claiming partners are a high-performing team with innovative leaders, academics, businesses and universities, who are all multi-award winning with proven track records in delivering transformative and disruptive innovations. The Project includes non-grant claiming partners who have established global and national reputations.**Grant claiming partners are as follows.**\*Raynor Foods Ltd -- Consortium Lead\*Software Imaging LTD\*University of Lincoln - National Centre for Food Manufacturing\*University of Cambridge -- Institute of Manufacturing**Non-grant claiming system providers**\*Siemens Group UK\*Elcomponent LTD\*Tascomp LTDOur project will deploy and fuse an array of digital technologies into Raynor Foods sandwich factory in Chelmsford, measuring the CO2e footprint in real-time and making it visible to all operational staff so that they act to reduce it.The integrated use of IDTs will ensure that all factory processes and assets are measurable, traceable, trackable and controllable. This will provide instantaneous measures of resources and CO2e emissions that will be integrated with staff welfare.Bringing together process and people data is transformative and enables remedial actions to be owned by staff and made in real time. The process and people data will be input into a Semi-Automatous Management System (SAMS) using AI/ML. SAMS will assist staff to simultaneously reduce factory energy consumption, process waste and monitor and enhance staff welfare and engagement.LettUs Grow is departing the project by mutual agreement. A detailed account of the issues, decision & accomplishment is set out in Reference A. In summary this was due to insufficiently mature technology readiness level & a business strategic direction change rendering exploitation of the Drop and Grow unit unviable. Unfortunately, we have not found a substitute. Therefore, we need to fully remove WP 4, sub workstream 5 entitled “Salad Ingredient Processing” including the infrastructure integration and seek to reallocate resources to refining and expanding the use cases to deliver CO2e reduction objectives through process efficiency and waste reduction in core manufacturing processes.Opportunity in onboarding Software Imaging (currently a subcontractor) as partner has been resolved This adds alternative scope facilitated by the Ultra-Wide Band Mesh technology enabling an array of use case applications measuring CO2e & alerting/actioning reduction, programming capabilities de-risking integration & implementation plus an exploitable product output for broader industry application to realise CO2e reduction goals.This transformative approach of integrating processes and people will reduce total GHG emissions by a third of current baseline activity. To achieve a sustainable and smart factory requires smart people and smart processes.
