CIPPS (Critical Infrastructure Pipeline Protection System)

CIPPS是一种革命性的新型管道保护系统。在它的第一代，它将针对石油输送管道。它使用保密技术，旨在检测第三方干扰或管道的任何外部损坏。它将能够以比现有产品高得多的精度做到这一点，即具有极其精确的定位服务(精确到最接近的厘米)，并能够准确地检测损坏的大小和性质。因此，它的范围得到了适当的调整，以满足明智的融资标准。为了使公司的愿景得以实现，已创建了以下目标，聪明的资金将有助于实现1。与供应商和制造商合作，确定产品的技术可行性。对设计进行适当的审查和修改，以确保将来制造适当数量的产品在技术上是可行的。在本项目范围内将编制一份正式的规格表。与潜在买家联系并建立工作关系，以确定技术规格是否能满足潜在买家的需求。根据对产品潜在购买者的反馈，在技术约束范围内更改设计。根据目标1、2、3、4酌情提交最高可达5,000.6 GB的核心专利申请。根据利益攸关方参与技术和对产品的技术分析，以产生以下交付成果：使用APM方法的项目管理计划，其中描述在SMART供资结束后如何进一步开发CIPPS(或如果市场未得到证实，项目将如何令人满意地结束)；TSB中途阶段的中期报告；以及向TSB提交的最终报告。

CIPPS is a revolutionary new pipeline protection system. In its first generation, it will beaimed at oil transportation pipelines. Using a confidential technology it is designed to detectthird party interference or any external damage to the pipeline. It will be able to do this withconsiderably more accuracy than existing products, i.e. with extremely precise locationalservices (accurate to the nearest centimetre) and will be able to detect accurately the size andnature of the damage.The purpose of this project is to serve as a proof of market. Therefore its scope has beentightly aligned to meet SMART funding criteria. To enable the vision of the company to berealised, the following objectives have been created which SMART funding will help achieve.1. To work with suppliers and manufacturers to determine the technical feasibility of theproduct.2. To review and alter the design as appropriate to ensure it is technically feasible tomanufacture in appropriate quantities in the future. A formal specification sheet will beproduced wihin the scope of this project.3. To contact and establish working relationships with potential buyers to establish whetherthe technical specifications can meet their prospective needs.4. To alter the design within technical constraints based upon feedback with prospectivebuyersof the product.5. To submit core patent filings as appropriate based on objectives 1,2,3,4 up to a maximumvalue of £5,000.6.. Based upon stakeholder engagement techniques and a technical analysis of the product, toproduce the following deliverables: A Project Management Plan using APM methodologywhich describes how CIPPS is to be developed further upon conclusion of the SMARTfunding (or if market is not proven, how project will be satisfactorily wound up); an interimreport at the half-way stage for the TSB; and a final report to the TSB.Total costs of this project are £45,000 of which £25,000 will be provided by the TSB.
