The Collaboration Across Business Boundaries (COLIBRI) project, funded by ATI, is a consortium of 11 partners, led by Rolls-Royce. The project addresses two significant challenges in order to uphold the UK’s global competitiveness: reducing product development costs and shortening time-to-market.
With a budget of £18 million, this three-year project capitalises on the expertise of each partner company to improve engineering design processes through the utilisation of advanced automation techniques and machine learning methodologies. The project has an expectation of enhancing model based engineering and developing novel design capabilities for product architectures.
