  3. Who is NCMS? …not-for-profit technology, information and education consortium providing value-added products and services that enable collaborationand learning among manufacturers

  4. This is NCMS • Organized under the National Cooperative Research Act of 1984; formed in 1986 • Largest cross-industry collaborative R&D consortium in North America • Devoted to manufacturing technologies, process, and practices • Nearly two decades of experience in the formation and management of complex multi-partner collaborative R&D programs

  5. NCMS Track Record Nearly two decades of experience in the formation and management of complex multi-partner collaborative R&D programs • Over 50 Cooperative Research & Development Agreements and Memoranda of Understanding • 290 multi-participant projects, $548M in collaboration funds involving over a 1000 participants and 37 Universities, including • Over 140 DoD projects totaling more than $348 Million • Four consecutive R&D 100 Awards • Three Defense Manufacturing Excellence Awards

  6. NCMS Mission The NCMS mission is to build the global competitiveness and strengthen the US-based manufacturing industry, private and public.

  7. This is NCMS • Corporate dues paying members represent virtually every sector of the manufacturing community • Staffed internally with a diverse array of technical and administrative capabilities • Headquartered in Ann Arbor, MI with an offices in Washington, D.C. and Bremerton, Washington

  8. We Deliver…. • Technology solutions • Strategic partnerships • Neutrality • Program management expertise • Business practice solutions • Knowledge capture & e-learning solutions • Networking opportunities

  9. Collaborative Programs • Commercial Technologies for Maintenance Activities (CTMA) • Advanced Manufacturing Technologies forHydrogen Energy Systems (AMT-HES)

  10. A Typical Project- What We Do Company C$100,000 in-kind • Company B • $150,000 in-kind DoD facility Company A $200,000 in-kind $50,000 cash Project Management Expertise $1MM R&D Project DoD facility Company D $200,000 in-kind Seed Funding $300,000 cash Contractor X Subcontractor Y

  11. Commercial Technologies for Maintenance Activities (CTMA) • Identify, form, launch and deploy new projects coupling the needs and strengths of commercial industry with the DoD’s maintenance, repair and remanufacturing facilities • Focus on reducing overall costs and increasing readiness • Cooperative Agreement between NCMS and the Office of the Secretary of Defense (David Pauling) • DoD-industry co-funding on a 2:1 match basis • http://ctma.ncms.org

  13. CTMA Project Launch Criteria • Begins with a one page description • Project team constructs project concept paper (~7 pages long) • Joint Industry/DoD interest and needs • Hard deliverables, direct impact on manufacturing shop floor • Cost/Benefits summary sketched out • Quantifiable • Participant roles defined • Validated Industrial cost-share • Letter of endorsement from base command • Submission of concept to Pentagon (Office of Secretary of Defense) • 10 day turnaround for approval…

  14. Hurdles for New Project Ideas • What new technology is being developed and implemented? • Not a mechanism for circumventing DoD procurement process. • Development and implementation versus research and development • Is there cross-service involvement? • For broader dissemination of technology • Is there sufficient industrial interest? • Greater than 2:1 cost share

  15. Communications and Networking • CTMA Website (http://ctma.ncms.org) • The CTMA Connector Newsletter • Symposium 2005 is April 18-21 at the Tacoma Sheraton, Washington “Where Ideas Become Reality”

  16. Advanced Manufacturing Technologies forHydrogen Energy Systems (AMT-HES) • Working with DOE and the private sector, identify and develop critical manufacturing technology assessments vital to the affordable manufacturing of hydrogen-powered systems. • Leverage technologies from other industrial sectors and work with the extensive industrial membership base of NCMS to do feasibility projects on those manufacturing technologies identified as key to reducing the cost of the targeted hydrogen-powered systems. (See Notes page for further information)

  17. Approach • Identify Manufacturing Hurdles to Hydrogen-Powered and Storage Systems • Rank as to impact for producing affordable structures • Institute collaborative development projects that address the manufacturing technology issues deemed of highest impact. • Provide a clearinghouse of information to promote technology utilization (See Notes page for further information)

  18. Workshops • Held in collaboration with the Society of Manufacturing Engineers • March 9-10 2005 in Dearborn, MI • Two workshops • Fuel Cell Components • Hydrogen Storage Systems • Approximately 70 attendees representing over 40 organizations

  19. Progress/Results – Call for Project Ideas Based upon workshop results and other information to date, NCMS put out a call for submission of collaborative project ideas in the following areas: • Hydrogen storage structures • Manufacturing processes • Assembly processes • Joining technologies • Manufacturing of fittings, valves, tubing, … (plumbing) • Parts reduction/simplification • Efficient/lean manufacturing of Fuel Cells • Coating processes • Automated manufacturing • Assembly technologies

  20. Call For Project Ideas Cont. • Sealing Technologies • Fuel cell stacks • Components • Balance of Plant • Discrete parts manufacturing and assembly • Parts reduction/simplification • Water/heat management • Inspection and Safety • Non-destructive testing and evaluation methods • Leak-testing • Sensor technologies

  21. Future Work - Project Development and Implementation • Project ideas due April 22, 2005 • One-page description of a collaborative project for consideration in the program.  • Successful project teams will be notified by May 9 to submit a 5-7 page proposal for evaluation. All projects must be collaborations with others in industry, academia, and/or federal laboratories. • Expect to develop 4-6 projects, 12-18 month duration, approx. $500,000 in value each
