PROMISE will develop appropriate technology, including product lifecycle models, Product Embedded Information Devices and software components and tools for decision making based on data gathered through a product lifecycle. This is done to enable and exploit the seamless flow, tracing and updating of product information, after its delivery to the customer and up to its final destiny and back to the designer and producer. The breakthrough contribution of PROMISE, in the long term, is to allow information flow management to go beyond the customer, to close the product lifecycle information loops, and to enable the seamless e-Transformation of Product Lifecycle Information to Knowledge. PROMISE integrates research activities to realise a prototype PROMISE PLM System, industrial applications covering 11 demonstrators in the Automotive, Railway, Heavy Load Vehicle, EEE and White goods sectors, standardisation, business development issues and training activities. PROMISE offers to the Product Lifecycle stakeholders: to create value by transforming information to knowledge at all phases of the product lifecycle and thus improve product and service quality, efficiency and sustainability. The main objectives are to develop new 1. closed-loop life cycle information flow models for BOL, MOL and EOL 2. PLM system and IT infrastructure exploiting the capabilities of smart product embedded information devices 3. standards to allow the technologies and associated tools to be developed by the PROMISE project to be accepted by the market. 4. working and business models appropriate for the use and exploitation of the new technologies and tools to be developed by all actors involved in a product lifecycle. The PROMISE consortium consists of 22 partners from 9 European countries. In addition it integrates research activities performed at private and EU-projects, as well as international corporations (IMS) involving 5 regions (EU, Switzerland, Japan, USA, Australia.
