THE ADVANCED CONTROL TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER PROGRAMME

The Advanced Control Technology Transfer Programme (ACTT) was aimed at providing information to UK companies, particularly small enterprises, to help them improve their competitiveness by adopting advanced control techniques. This was achieved using a wide range of mechanisms including a newsletter, booklets, case studies, seminars, workshops, demonstrations, Regional events and Regional ACTT networks. The programme was targeted at Directors, Executives and Technical staff in manufacturing industry. The programme has also been useful in creating local networking opportunities for users, system integrators and suppliers of advanced control solutions

Following publication of the DTI Innovation Report in December 2003 (http://www.dti.gov.uk/innovationreport/index.htm) future support for technology will be covered by the new Technology Programme. Details can be found at: www.dti.gov.uk/technologyprogramme
