Provision of the Digital Factory at the National Advanced Manufacturing Centre (AMC), National Technology Park, Limerick

To sustain and enhance the competitiveness of the Irish manufacturing sector, IDA Ireland is leading on the delivery of the National Advanced Manufacturing Centre (AMC) which it intends to deliver and operationalise by Q4 2021. The AMC is a strategic national priority and is aligned with Government’s Industry 4.0 (2020-2025) strategy. The AMC will serve the national discrete manufacturing base within Ireland and is intended to: - De-risk the access to trialling and accelerate the adoption of new I4 technologies within the discrete manufacturing base, - Provide a collaborative environment for the adoption of emergent industrial technologies relevant to the future of manufacturing, - Provide industry training in emergent platforms to upskill the workforce in line with future production skills needs. A key enabling component for the AMC shall be ‘The Digital Factory’, which is the subject of this procurement competition. The AMC shall become a national showcase and international exemplar for advanced manufacturing across Ireland’s discrete manufacturing base. It shall support manufacturing companies to create value from the deployment of digital technologies and the digitisation of their manufacturing operations, by collaboratively researching and solving defined industry problems at latter stage TRLs. The AMC will contribute to supporting the retention and creation of jobs in the Irish manufacturing sector and will support the enhancement of Ireland's value proposition for manufacturing investments.
