VE-DRIVE: Virtual Enterprise - Digital Resource Integration, Visualisation & Exploitation

VE-DRIVE是一个耗资128万英镑、为期2年的合作研发项目，由技术战略委员会和项目合作伙伴共同资助。来自不同市场部门和供应链位置的4个项目合作伙伴是BAE系统公司、Theorem Solution公司和Holovis International公司，由捷豹路虎公司领导项目，Axillium Research公司提供项目管理支持。数字化工具每天都用于为全球市场设计、开发、生产、交付和支持产品。从“OEM”到整个供应链，都有一个共同的要求，即连接这些数字流程，将产品推向市场，为产品提供支持，并从概念到服务环境捕捉市场输入。通过该项目，联盟合作伙伴旨在产生技术和专业知识，以连接整个供应链中的数字技术，并在新的数字和沉浸式环境中将数字产品开发方法与消费者直接联系起来。通过将新一代互联的数字环境应用于产品生命周期，该项目将通过用户与数字“展厅”和更广泛的“虚拟”环境中的虚拟信息、内容和服务的直接互动，在所有阶段直接增加价值。

VE-DRIVE is a £1.28m, 2-year collaborative research and development project co-funded by the Technology Strategy Board and the project partners. The 4 project partners from across market sectors and supply chain positions are BAE Systems, Theorem Solution and Holovis International with project lead Jaguar Land Rover, and Project Management support provided by Axillium Research.Digital tools are used daily to design, develop, produce, deliver and support products for global markets. From the ‘OEM’ and throughout the supply chain there is a common requirement to connect these digital processes to bring products to market, support them, and capture market input from concept through to the in-service environment. Through this project, the consortium partners aim to generate technology and expertise to connect digital technologies across supply chains and deliver the key innovation of directly linking digital product development approaches to the consumer in new digital and immersive environments. By applying a new generation of connected, digital environments to product life cycle, this project will add value directly at all stages through direct user interaction with virtual information, content and services in digital ‘showrooms’ and wider ‘virtual’ environments.
