Mona Keijzer State Secretary for Economic Affairs and Climate Policy

Digitization is shaking the world. It is changing our economy and society with lightning speed. To safeguard jobs and economic growth, we therefore face the important challenge of digitizing our industry and thereby ensuring it is fit for the future – in other words, making Dutch industry smart. We have all the qualities needed to rise to this challenge. The Netherlands is an innovative country with a unique tradition of collaboration between businesses, knowledge institutions and the government. With this ‘Smart Industry Implementation Agenda 2018-2021’ we are continuing this tradition with energy and dynamism.

In the manufacturing industry, digitization, robotiza-tion and big data are resulting in more and more new products and services being brought onto the market. Industrial digitization is a dominant development, not only in the Netherlands, but also internationally, and is progressing at an impressive rate. Since November 2014 we have managed to achieve a number of excellent results thanks to the ‘Smart Industry Action Agenda’: for example, more than 30 Fieldlabs have now been set up in the Netherlands, each with its own specific area of expertise. Right across the Netherlands businesses, knowledge institutions, regions and other initial partners have created a solid base that will enable us to play a leading role in the field of Smart Industry. The challenge now is to build on this.

Ineke Dezentjé Hamming-BlueminkChair of the Smart Industry Team

Foreword

And that is precisely what we will be doing with this Smart Industry Implementation Agenda 2018-2021. I am delighted that, as a Smart Industry team, we will be starting to make the wonderful plans we have drawn up a reality, together with all our partners. We will be focusing, amongst other things, on eight industrial transformations in which the Netherlands can play a leading role, such as the cyber-secure exchange of data or the customized production of one-off items. We will only be able to do this successfully by continuing to enter into smart and dynamic alliances. I want to head towards the digital future at full throttle, together with businesses, workers, knowledge institutions and the government. That will be good for the economy, for industry and, consequently, for everyone living in the Netherlands.

The document you have before you is an ambitious programme that will help our businesses transform their smart ideas into concrete products. I am delighted that this agenda is supporting SMEs, which are drivers of employment and economic growth and enable us to lead the lives we do today. By supporting them, we are therefore looking after our economy and, ultimately, ensuring our own well-being too. The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy is proud to be a partner of this Smart Industry Implementation Agenda.


Chapter 1 / Introduction

The Netherlands is an innovative country with a unique tradition of collaboration between businesses, knowledge institutions and the government. As a result, Dutch industry enjoys a strong export position and is an international leader in technological and new industrial developments. However, international positions are changing rapidly as a result of digitization and action is therefore needed. The digitization of industry, or Smart Industry, is being driven by the development of new ICT and manufacturing technology and is having a far-reaching impact on industry, from large businesses through to SMEs. Securing a posi-tion in the vanguard of industrial digitization is crucial for jobs, future economic growth and the sustainability of industry. Businesses, including SMEs, need to keep pace with this trend in order to remain competitive.

This Smart Industry Implementation Agenda 2018-2021 describes the actions needed to ensure the Netherlands remains at the forefront of this development. The agenda has been drawn up by a broad coalition of businesses, knowledge institutions and government authorities and builds on the activities carried out within the framework of the Smart Industry Action Agenda 2014-2017.

The Implementation Agenda is firmly embedded within the Top Sectors High-Tech Systems and Materials (HTSM) and ICT and also has links to other Top Sectors, inclu-ding Chemicals, Agri & Food and Horticulture & Starting Materials. There is also a close partnership between the agenda and the National Technology Pact.

The key objective of the Implementation Agenda is to speed up digitization within Dutch businesses. This remains a major challenge for SMEs in particular, although the practical solutions resulting from Smart Industry lend themselves to application by this particular group of industrial manufacturers. We need to think in global terms here: Smart Industry should lead to new exportable business propositions. By focusing on the development of an ambitious, internationally leading programme, we are continuing to build on our unique, integrated ecosystem within which businesses, knowledge institutions and the government work together closely on implementation and breakthrough innovations. This will result in: 1. Greater economic growth due to increased productivity2. Growth in employment and attractive jobs3. Solutions to societal problems, e.g. due to lower

consumption of raw materials and energy

How will we approach this?

Content guided by eight industrial transformations

Based on experiences acquired in recent years, eight key issues have been identified, such as ensuring that digital data can be exchanged efficiently and securely with other businesses. These eight industrial transformations are described in Chapter 4 and will guide the content of the projects carried out to speed up digitization within businesses, as well as the content of our activities. They are the goals that we want to achieve.

Nine acceleration projects to drive the process forward

To speed up these industrial transformations even further, nine major projects have been defined, together with specific objectives and activities for the next four years. These include translating the knowledge acquired from the Fieldlabs for use by a wider group of businesses, for example, or creating a digital environment where Dutch businesses can share data securely within the chain. These nine acceleration projects are described in Chapter 5.

To be at the forefront of digitization, we need to build a dynamic coalition of businesses, sectors, regions, know-ledge institutions and government authorities to work on concrete activities – within their own organizations and jointly in the form of Fieldlabs, for example. These activities should be embedded within the Top Sector approach, while at the same time focusing on securing a strong international position and close links with Europe, including by means of Digital Innovation Hubs and the European innovation network the Vanguard Initiative. This Implementation Agenda has therefore been drawn up in the most concrete form possible and is an invitation to all parties to set to work on the agenda and support its implementation.



Over the past three years a number of excellent results have been achieved: for example, more than 30 Fieldlabs have now been set up in the Netherlands, each with its own specific area of expertise. Right across the Netherlands businesses, knowledge institutions, regions and other initial partners have created a solid base that will enable us to play a leading role in the field of Smart Industry.

Getting started

Smart Industry was launched in 2014 when the Smart Industry Action Agenda was presented to Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte at the Hannover Messe trade fair. Germany’s Industrie 4.0 initiative, launched a year earlier at the same trade fair, signalled the start of work to develop a digitized industrial base for Germany, high- lighting a trend taking place across the globe.

In the Netherlands, the Smart Industry Action Agenda, Dutch Industry Fit for the Future, has set in motion a development involving a wide range of actors. Some of the results achieved are presented below.

150 Smart Industry presentations with 15,000 participants

Smart Industry has made an important contribution when it comes to raising awareness of the opportunities of digitization for the manufacturing industry. For some businesses these insights are completely new, while for others they are bringing into focus a development that the businesses themselves have identified and/or are already anticipating.

Almost two hundred Smart Industry Ambassadors from the business community

A network of Smart Industry Ambassadors has been created. Smart Industry Ambassadors are businesses and institutions that are ready for the future and actively contributing to the realization of the Smart Industry Action Agenda. A good example is ISAH, which is coordinating the Inter-nationalization working group. Ambassadors have access to knowledge and are happy to share this with the Smart Industry network.

Chapter 2 / Results

Smart Robotics Employment agency for robots

Smart Robotics (also a Smart Industry Ambassador) was founded a few years ago and is a company that lends robots to other businesses. It has experienced huge growth and is currently working hard on its plans to enter the international market.

A lot has been achieved over the past three years


32 Fieldlabs launched

A Fieldlab is a practical environment within which Smart Industry solutions are developed, tested and implemented, and that allows people to learn how to apply them. To date 32 Fieldlabs have been launched, in which around 300 businesses and various knowledge institutions and government authorities are participating. Many Fieldlabs have now achieved concrete results in the form of viable applications that can be put to use in practice. New products have been developed and a number of Fieldlabs have set up new businesses. A sum of almost 165 million euros has already been invested in the Smart Industry Fieldlabs, of which a little under 70 million euros is made up of private investments.

The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) published a first Smart Industry call for proposals, as a result of which six research projects have now been launched. UPPS (Ultra-Personalized Products and Services) and the Maintenance Fieldlabs are amongst the parties involved in these. The roadmap has now been updated (see Chapter 5).

Skills

In the Action Agenda we are focusing on equipping both future and current workers with the competences and skills needed to work in Smart Industry.

Fieldlabs centred around skills development have been set up. One example is the work being carried out within the Sustainability Factory to put lifelong learning into practice: from early education through to further training, refresher training and retraining throughout a person’s career. Another example is the Industrial Robotics Fieldlab, which is developing educational programmes and certification for the application of industrial robotics.

Various educational institutions have launched new Smart Industry courses and a Lecturers platform has also been set up in which thirty participants are involved.

Standardization, data sharing, cybersecurity

The Smart Industry Standardization Agenda has been drawn up to promote the use of standards in Dutch industry. It should also help the Netherlands achieve a better international position when it comes to developing new ICT and industrial standards. To facilitate data sharing, a standard contract has been drawn up that makes it easier for parties to enter into agreements, while in the area of cybersecurity a tool designed to assist SMEs is being finalized.

UPPS FieldlabUltra-Personalized Products and Services

The UPPS Fieldlab has been set up to promote innovation in the area of UPPS. Its ultimate aim is to create a Dutch manufacturing industry capable of manufacturing personalized products on a large scale. This Fieldlab is focusing on three areas: sport, health and fashion.

Chapter 2 / Results


Chapter 3 / Analysis

3.1 International developments

Smart Industry is developing at breakneck speed. The results presented in Chapter 2 reveal that the Netherlands has made huge leaps forward in recent years. However, there is no room for complacency. Since 2014 Smart Industry and Industry 4.0 have become widely accepted concepts internationally and many countries are emulating these initiatives.

Inspired and encouraged by, amongst other things, the EU’s ‘Digitizing European Industry’ strategy, various European countries have now presented their national industrial digitization strategies. Those that have not yet done so are hard at work on their plans.

The impact of disruptive technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, robotization and new manufacturing technologies is no longer underestimated. Substantial investments are being made in these areas both inside and outside Europe. The Digital Transformation Monitor published in June 2017 reveals that the Netherlands invested 25 million euros over the 2014-2017 period.

Modernizing industry

However, a recent assessment of the Smart Industry Fieldlabs1 indicates that more than 50 million euros was invested in Smart Industry Fieldlabs from 2014 to 2017. The Netherlands is therefore in the vanguard of Smart Industry development. This is confirmed in the Readiness for the Future of Production Report 2018 by the World Economic Forum and global management consultant A.T. Kearney, which also states that the Netherlands is one of the countries that is well positioned to benefit from Industry 4.0.

3.2 Digitization of industry: economic impact

Economic impactIndustry accounts for 82% of exports of Dutch-manufactured goods and is therefore an important pillar of our prosperity. Consequently, securing a position in the vanguard of industrial digitization is crucial for jobs and future economic growth.

Boosting competitiveness Digitization enhances our competitiveness. By increasing productivity, we can create more added value per worker, tap into new markets and supply better-quality end pro-ducts. Targeted investments in areas such as Automation and Artificial Intelligence could increase GDP by 1.3% in the Netherlands and by 1.2% in the European Union as a whole (ITIF, 26 November 2016).

Improving annual turnoverThe Digital Transformation Scoreboard 2017 reveals that 14% of the 477 European businesses surveyed (businesses that have invested in digital technologies over the past three years) have increased their turnover by more than 20%. Of these 477 European businesses, 39% have seen their turnover rise by up to 20%.

Generating growth by attracting new customersThe Digital Transformation Scoreboard 2017 shows that 81% of the 477 European businesses surveyed have achieved growth thanks to the adoption of digital techno-logies, which have helped them develop and market new products and services through which they have acquired new customers. Of the mechanical engineering businesses surveyed, 26% have managed to attract new customers. The same can be said of 31% of healthcare companies and 24% of businesses from the automotive industry.

3.3 Digitization of industry: employment and social impact

Improving employment and creating high-quality jobs Facilitating the return of production to Europe by cutting costs could help create new jobs, open up new markets and promote new digital skills.

In the ‘My Smart Industry’ research report ING’s Economic Bureau concludes that the technology industry could be a long-term driver of growth for the Dutch economy. One of the prerequisites is that the sector takes advantage of digitization in order to achieve growth. If this growth is to be sustained, more workers will be needed. The sector is faced with the challenge of attracting 120,000 people by 2030.

Figure 6ING sees the potential to create 120,000 jobs in the technology industry

At present 286,000 people (FTEs) are employed in the sector.

By 2030, 70,000 workers will retire and will need to be replaced.

50,000 extra workers will be needed to achieve growth of more than 4% by 2030 and double added value1.

In total, therefore, by 203070,000 + 50,000 = 120,000 new people will need to be hired.

120,000 new workers needed by 2030 to achieve sustained growth in the sector

1 This is based on the assumption of annual growth in labour productivity of 3% up to 2030, the same figure as for the 1995-2016 period. Productivity per FTE would then increase from € 110,000 in 2016 to € 167,000 in 2030.

According to the European Commission, 32% of workers in Europe have no or few digital skills and 15% have not yet used the internet (European semester thematic fiche, Digital Single Market; Digital skills 2016). Although the digital skills that workers possess differ from one Member State to another, these limited skills present a major problem, primarily because the race to attract digital talent is a global one. Investing in skills is therefore of crucial importance. Smart Industry and employmentA study in a German management journal predicts that within ten years more than 100,000 new jobs will be created in the mechanical engineering and construction sectors, as cybersecurity will result in a need for extra workers with technical expertise (Boston Consulting Group in Consequences of Industry 4.0 on Human Labour and Work Organisation, August 2017).

A survey of managers at a hundred German companies reveals that work is changing as a result of digitization: 85% think teamwork is becoming more important, 82% believe workers will pay greater attention to the risks of social media, 80% expect customers’ ideas to assume a more important role in product development, 80% expect work to become more flexible and 79% think networks will gain in importance (IFIDZ & FAZ-Institut, 2014; Engeser, 2015).

The Digital Transformation Scoreboard 2017 shows that, of the 417 businesses surveyed that have adopted digital technologies, 10% have taken on new staff, 44% have kept their workforce at the same level, 42% gave no response and just 4% saw their staff numbers fall.

Societal problems Smart Industry could have a part to play in resolving societal problems, for example by reducing the number of rejects during the production process, increasing efficiency (which benefits the climate and raw material consumption), as well as introducing new production technology to promote sustainable agriculture and robotics to support healthcare personnel.

The importance of tackling climate change and using raw materials more efficiently has been brought into sharper focus since the signing of the Paris Climate Agreement and the definition of the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Smart Industry has the potential to make a real contribution in these areas. 3D printing can reduce raw material consumption and result in fewer transport move-ments. In addition, energy can be saved by means of an algorithm that reduces the energy consumption of inter-connected robots (Accelerating Clean Energy through Industry 4.0, Manufacturing the next revolution, 2017, UN).

Smart manufacturing, such as that being worked on within the Smart Bending Factory Fieldlab, can drive down the consumption of energy and materials.

A number of European countries, such as Italy, Spain and Sweden, are focusing their Smart Industry programmes specifically on the area of sustainability (Digital Transformation Monitor 2017).

3.4 Technology is developing rapidly

A brief overview of the latest technological developmentsThe Smart Industry Action Agenda of November 2014 already focused on the Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber-physical systems. However, the digitization agenda has continued to evolve.

Hardware The cost of robots, 3D printing, sensors and data storage is falling all the time and computers are becoming ever smaller. The number of transistors integrated into a single chip doubles every 18 months (Moore’s law, 1965).


Figure 7Five generations of ICT paradigms

SoftwareThe software businesses use to increase the efficiency of their operations is being improved all the time. Links between factory software and office IT systems are now becoming commonplace. The same can be said of cloud solutions, big data analytics and blockchain, which are developing apace. The end of these developments is still a long way off, however. Artificial intelligence is considered to be the most far-reaching innovation and various new applica - tions are emerging, although the impact these will have on society is hard to predict.

The development of deep learning and artificial neural networks is making it increasingly difficult for people to understand what is going on inside a machine.

Each new decade brings with it its own new themes. NetworksThe field of mobile communication is currently developing at a rapid pace thanks to the construction of networks and developments in the area of sensors.

Besides 4G, technologies such as LoRa (Long Range, Low Power IoT) and NarrowBand IoT are also now becoming established. The next development now heaving into view is the roll-out of 5G.

Today, the role of international platforms is being seen in a different light. Increasing use is being made of digital platforms, which means greater attention needs to be paid to the commercial interests of local industry and cyber-security. Global expenditure on cybersecurity is expected to exceed 1 billion dollars between 2017 and 2021 (Cybersecurity Business Report 2017).

Linking ICT to other technologies Linking ICT to other technologies, such as photonics, nanotechnology, quantum computing, artificial intelli-gence and blockchain, is gaining in importance all the time. A multi- technology approach is therefore required. The OECD is now referring to this as the Next Production Revolution (NPR).

3.5 Impact on business processes

Technology in five years’ timeNew technologies have a major impact on business processes. That is clear from, amongst other things, the following statement from Exact: “We can now do things that were impossible in 2015”. The question is: what will my business look like in five years’ time if these develop-ments continue?

Production process and technologyRobots are being used more and more. Globally, there were 69 robots on average for every 10,000 workers in 2015. In the Netherlands there were 120 robots for every 10,000 workers that year, which puts us in sixteenth place in the global rankings. South Korea tops the list with 531 robots for every 10,000 workers. Singapore, Japan, Germany and the US are the other countries that make up the top 5 (see Figure 9).

The Netherlands’ position is certainly due in part to the fact that little mass production takes place here. However, robots are becoming cheaper and more flexible, meaning they can also be used as part of production processes for smaller series (see the Smart Robotics example in Chapter 2). The number of robots in the Netherlands is therefore rising sharply. In 2016 Dutch industry purchased 1,778 new robots. This resulted in 155 robots for every 10,000 workers in 2016 (IFR 2016), an increase of 29% on the previous year (see Figure 10).

Berenschot and ABN estimate that the Dutch 3D-printing market was worth 100 million euros in 2017. By 2060, and possibly as early as 2040, half of all products are expected to be fabricated by 3D printers (Logistiek, September 2017).

Airbus subsidiary AP Works has developed a motorcycle weighing just 35 kilos that is manufactured almost entirely using 3D printing. As a result, its motor is 30% lighter than the average electric motor. The frame is printed using the specially developed material Scalmalloy, which, according to AP Works, is almost as strong as titanium.

ProductsSmart products are able to perform calculations, store data and communicate. They can provide information about their identity, properties and history. That means they can indicate which production processes they have undergone and which are still to come.

ServicesServitization refers to the process whereby services take on increasing importance within the business model of manufacturing firms. Services are transformed from a cost item into an opportunity to provide a better service to the customer and thereby increase turnover. In technology-driven sectors services are becoming every bit as important as hardware and software. Industrial firms are generating 20% of their turnover from services (LinkMagazine, October 2016). IBM, for example, has developed from a hardware business into a company that offers a range of successful services (Atos Consulting White Paper). Other leading businesses that are giving services greater prominence within their business model include Océ and ASML. However, the same can be said of certain SMEs. Aebi-Schmidt, for example, which manufactures salt spreaders, is well under way with the adaptation of its business model, which is now centred around services rather than products.

Ruigrok, a manufacturer of access systems, is able to monitor online, for customers with a service contract, how often a gate is opened and closed, to make maintenance predictable (LinkMagazine, October 2016). Listening carefully to your customers and responding to their needs is no longer enough. With up-to-date knowledge of digitization and new technology you can now surprise the customer with new and unique business propositions.

3.6 Conclusion: time to take the next step

Economic impactA number of the examples presented above (see Section 3.2) make clear that Smart Industry has a positive econo-mic impact, for example by creating new jobs, boosting competitiveness, increasing turnover and helping a com-pany expand its customer base. Investing in Smart Industry therefore makes perfect sense.

Social impact and skills Other examples (see Section 3.3) demonstrate that Smart Industry can help resolve societal problems, for example by reducing the consumption of raw materials. This high-lights the importance of following the example set by other European countries that are focusing more specifi-cally on social aspects, such as sustainability.

We can only continue to set ourselves apart on the interna-tional stage if we keep pace with the explosive develop-ments in the areas of knowledge and new technology and translate these even more effectively into internationally competitive business propositions. To take the Netherlands to the next level as a modern industrial nation, having access to a well-trained workforce with up-to-date knowledge and skills is essential.

According to the Future of Production Report 2018 by the World Economic Forum (WEF) and global manage-ment consultant A.T. Kearney, the Netherlands is currently ranked thirteenth when it comes to human capital as a production driver. That means there are still gains to be made by the Netherlands in this area. In ‘Shaping the future of work in Europe’s digital front-runners’ McKinsey concludes that workers will need to invest systematically in the acquisition of new (digital) skills to prepare themselves for changing roles and new tasks. In conclusion...The Smart Industry programme’s Action Agenda has deli-vered all manner of good results and numerous initiatives have been launched.

International developments in the area of Smart Industry and Industry 4.0 are moving at a rapid pace. The Netherlands has acted promptly and now needs to press ahead with its plans. The time has come to capitalize on and further consolidate our leading position.

“If the Netherlands manages to make a breakthrough and take up a leading position – in key areas – in relation to these developments, that will make a structural contribution to raising industrial productivity and thereby boosting prosperity and employment in the Netherlands, as well as to resolving the social challenges of the future” (Smart Industry Mid-term Review Committee 2017).



Chapter 4 / Industrial transformations

New challenges for Smart IndustryThe fast pace of industrial digitization means businesses need to make targeted changes. To remain fit for the future, they will have to keep adapting to changes on the market and coming up with new solutions.

We are not talking here about simple, incremental adjustments. To stay competitive, businesses will need to undergo a transformation in one or more areas. We distinguish between eight key industrial transformations.

These are shown in the outer ring of the Smart Industry wheel on the next page. The first challenge is to update and flexibilize production, but also to develop new products and services that are made possible by digitiza-tion. When it comes to digitization it is absolutely crucial that businesses have their own digital house in order and improve their connectivity within the chain. It is also important that their people and organization adapt to the new digital world. Lastly, industry will need to take further steps in the area of sustainability.

The industrial transformations will be driven by related technological developments, which are shown in the orange inner ring: the latest available manufacturing tech-nology, such as robots, drones and 3D printing, develop-ments in the area of software (e.g. big data) and the latest communication technologies, such as 5G and LoRa.

The main challenge lies in the array of business opportu-nities described in the grey ring of the wheel. A business cannot change everything at once. However, it is possible to determine the current position of a business and its desired position relative to other firms and best-in-class companies.

An assessment is currently being developed that will allow businesses to identify where they need to undertake the greatest transformation to move from their current to their desired position (see Chapter 5). It will then be up to the management and its Smart Industry team to decide on the desired transformation and the implementation projects that will have the greatest impact.

Certain transformations are dependent on others, while some can be tackled independently. In practice, specific acceleration projects will contribute to one or more transformations.

1. Advanced Manufacturing

A Dutch factory will be able to supplyfaultless products with increasing fre-quency, as each step in the production process will be fully controlled. Complying at all times with the specifications on the output side of a production step ensures the input conditions for each subsequent step are always the same. Not only are further automation and robotization then possible, for example, but, more importantly, manufacturing with zero defects allows many follow-up costs to be avoided. Zero-defect manufacturing has consequences for all the equipment used and requires a higher degree of accuracy (micro/nano level) and comprehensive data logging. Once this has been achieved, the next step towards mass customization becomes possible, as configuration and start-up losses are reduced. Advanced manufacturing goes further than quality control. The current description refers to a situation in which everything is still checked, but we are moving towards a situation that involves a high degree of data measure-ment, storage and analysis in combination with machine learning; in other words, a digital factory that is able to predict pro-cess anomalies without having to perform ongoing quality measurements.

2. Flexible Manufacturing

Dutch factories mainly manufacture small series and one-off custom items, make goods to order instead of supplying from stock and are able to offer reliable and, in many cases, extremely short lead times. High-complexity, low-volume industries, such as high-tech systems and the maritime sector, are important sec-tors in which the Netherlands is a leading player on the global market. Cutting cost prices implies creating an environment in which there is zero programming of robots and equipment and large-scale use of 3D printing, but also a first-time-right environment (no start-up losses, as is the case with the direct printing of electronics, and immediate realization of zero-defect manufacturing).

The ambition is to create a highly flexible factory within which a team of people is consistently able to manufac-ture different products with the shortest possible lead times, from quotation to delivery and from order to delivery.

3. Smart Products

In 2020 products designed in the Netherlands will be user friendly, attrac-tive (human touch), smart and always digitally connected. They will have been designed with a view to minimizing their overall lifetime costs (in terms of energy, materials and transport). Products will have built-in intelligence and possibly incorporate flexible electronics to allow them to communicate with their environ-ment (users, but also any remote mana-gers). In addition, they will be customer- specific (capital goods) or even ultra- personalized (consumer goods). These products will also have been designed with component reuse and flexible (n=1) manufacturing in mind.

4. Servitization

Dutch product manufacturers are shifting their role towards that of a service provider that offers both pro-ducts and services or have expanded the earnings models of their service organization. Examples include leasing services with the associated financing of hardware products, but also condition- based maintenance by means of remote installation monitoring. The shift towards a service-provider role is becoming ever easier thanks to the use of the Internet of Things (IoT), 5G and blockchain tech-nology, for example, enabling a supplier that builds, manages, maintains and can take back hardware/software to monitor every aspect of the process. The deve-lopment of (digital) platform solutions that bring together several applications and components has an important role to play here. One example is the use of Artificial Intelligence to analyze the data collected by (multiple) remote-monito-ring sensors for purposes of predictive maintenance.




5. Digital Factory

Internally, all the different parts of a Dutch factory will be digitally connec-ted in a seamless (and secure) way, from office functions, design, production and logistics through to maintenance and management. For all products, proces-ses and equipment a digital twin will be available of/for the design, visual (AR/VR) and process modelling, simulation, control, maintenance and management registration. Based on data collected, Artificial Intelligence algorithms will allow an increasing number of processes to be performed automatically. Alongside the CAD version of an object, big data management, IoT connections and storage of usage data (process and maintenance data) will also play an important role. All these digital models, data and links will make it possible to monitor, opti-mize and simulate changes to a factory’s status. It will also be possible to train AI algorithms based on the historical values collected. Many sensors, pieces of equip-ment and systems collect more data than is currently used. This will change rapidly thanks to AI applications. Dutch compa-nies will ensure that these data, models and algorithms remain under their own management.

6. Connected Factories

In 2021 Dutch businesses will be digitally connected and be able to exchange data securely in accordance with internatio-nal standards using interconnected IT systems. They will also have been pre-pared for integrated chain optimization. Quotations, drawings, orders, transport information, calculations, production/quality data from machines, etc. will be digitally identified/described in accor-dance with open industry standards and it will be possible to exchange them securely without vendor lock-in. The chal-lenge is to optimize the use of resources (lower costs and faster, error-free deli-veries) over an entire value chain, from quotation through to delivery/payment, e.g. through blockchain-based automa-ted marketplace negotiations. This will be made possible by cybersecurity and IoT connections, but also through the use of fibre-optic networks and 5G (large data flows and fast response times). However, appropriate legal contracts will also be required (copyrights on sensor data, database legislation, privacy legis-lation, usage rights relating to software in equipment, etc.).

7. Sustainable Factory

A Dutch factory will operate as efficiently as possible, with a view to minimizing consumption of energy and materials. As far as possible it will consume energy from renewable sources and recycled/refurbished materials, and the products it manufactures will be as reusable/ refurbishable/recyclable as possible. There is also a link here to the overall lifecycle design that is an element of Smart Products and Servitization, but also to Flexible Manufacturing, as a flexible factory that can manufacture one-off items must, if it is to be a sus-tainable factory, also be able to reverse the sequence in the future and disassem-ble the product into its most reusable components.

8. Smart Working

Working in a Dutch factory will be enjoyable, motivating and accessible for young and old workers, irrespective of any previous training they may have had. Workers will be supported as fully as pos-sible by technology that they understand, that they have been trained in, where necessary, and that makes them more productive and helps them maintain their health. We refer to this as human-oriented technology. Take exoskeletons and cobots, for example, which can make tough, dirty and dangerous jobs cleaner, safer and less strenuous, or Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, which can support workers to help them perform complex actions flawlessly. Robots and machines that can be operated intuitively are another example. This technology means that training periods are shorter and allows people to remain in work for longer, as well as making their work rewarding and more enjoyable. At the same time it opens up a huge potential labour market for an industry that is crying out for workers. It also makes busi-nesses more competitive. Organizational aspects linked to the use of technology on the shop floor and lifelong learning also fall under this theme.


5.1 Goal

Aim The Smart Industry Implementation Agenda 2018-2021 aims to contribute to greater economic growth by boosting productivity and supporting new, internationally competi-tive business propositions, to an increase in employment and to solutions to societal problems, e.g. by reducing consumption of raw materials and energy. In recent years significant progress has been made in the Netherlands with the Smart Industry Action Agenda, but in our view the rate of implementation within businesses needs to be stepped up. That means that we must vigorously push ahead with the Implementation Agenda, but also increase its impact.

AmbitionOur ambition is to ensure that by 2021 the Netherlands has the most flexible and best digitally connected pro-duction network in Europe, one that also enables its manufacturing firms to generate substantial savings in the area of energy and materials.To achieve this ambition, we will need to take the following steps over the coming period:• Continue to shift activities from awareness raising

to actual implementation• Focus on a number of acceleration projects• Take the industrial transformations as a basis to

guide project content

• Increase the engagement of the business community• Strengthen collaboration with industries and regions Action lines and acceleration projectsThe Implementation Agenda has five action lines:• Getting businesses started• Fieldlabs• Knowledge• Skills• Digital environment

Within these action lines we are implementing a number of major acceleration projects.

Over the coming period we hope to make significant progress with these projects in a range of areas. Several acceleration projects have been set up for each action line. These will also contribute to the various industrial transfor-mations indicated below.

9. International business with Smart Industry


Over the coming period we will be launching further acceleration projects linked to these transformations and are inviting the business community to come forward with proposals.

As we are keen to contribute explicitly to the achieve- ment of climate targets through Smart Industry, one of the priority themes is the ‘Sustainable Factory’ industrial transformation, which focuses on reducing consumption of raw materials and energy within industry.

The action lines and acceleration projects are explained in further detail in the next section.

5.2 ‘Getting businesses started’ action line

In recent years considerable efforts have been made, by means of information meetings and vouchers for example, to make businesses aware that a technological revolution is under way. These kinds of measures are still needed. However, we are now shifting the focus towards helping companies tackle Smart Industry in practice more intensi-vely and in a more targeted way.

Smart Industry AssessmentTo help companies determine where they currently stand in the area of Smart Industry and where the opportunities and challenges lie, an assessment programme will be established in 2018. This will build on the positive expe-riences gained from Belgium’s Factory of the Future programme, amongst other things. The assessment will be based around the eight industrial transformations that form the core of the Implementation Agenda.

1. SMART INDUSTRY ASSESSMENT PROGRAMME

Aim To help companies get started with Smart Industry: think big, act small, make them aware of their current situation, what the opportunities are and what their potential ambitions might be, and translate all this into concrete actions that can be taken within the company and/or chain.

Activities - Development of the assessment in close collaboration with partners from the FOKUS Interreg project.

- ‘Train the trainers’ programme, incorporating knowledge acquired in Belgium. - Performance of the assessment by businesses, with support from the future

Smart Industry Expertise Centre (see acceleration project 2) in partnership with industries and regions. There are three different variants: self-assessment, assessment with limited support and assessment with extensive support and involvement of external experts.

Result 1. A functioning, tried-and-tested assessment that is widely supported in the Netherlands and the rest of Europe.

2. Availability of a digital tool for self-assessment and benchmarking.3. After four years of the assessment programme 5,000 unique businesses will

have used the digital tool, 500 will have participated in a learning community and 100 will have followed the intensive programme.

4. Creation of a visible international profile for the Dutch business community.

Parties involved FME (employers’ organization for the technology industry), Koninklijke Metaalunie (employers’ organization for the metal industry), TNO, Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, Chamber of Commerce, Agoria and RVO (Netherlands Enterprise Agency). Where possible, work will be carried out in partnership with the five regional Smart Industry Hubs.



Smart Industry Expertise CentreThere are many different organizations that make Smart Industry knowledge and tools available to the business community. To organize this process more transparently and efficiently, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, the Chamber of Commerce, TNO, FME and Koninklijke Metaalunie are working together to set up a Smart Industry Expertise Centre. This centre will be the contact point for businesses and bring together the knowledge and tools offered by the various partners. It will operate in partnership with the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) and the various regional Smart Industry Hubs (see Section 5.3, Smart Industry Hubs acceleration project).

Services offeredIn recent years all manner of organizations have developed services to make businesses aware of Smart Industry and support them with its implementation. This range of ser-vices will be further streamlined and expanded, a process that will be linked to the assessment and structured by the expertise centre. Greater use will also be made of the possibilities offered by the generic tools of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, based on the experi-ences acquired during the South Holland IPC (Innovation Performance Contracts) pilot, for example.

2. SMART INDUSTRY EXPERTISE CENTRE

Aim To provide a one-stop shop for businesses. Focus on speeding up developments across the wider industrial SME sector and supporting implementation in achievable steps.

Activities A one-stop shop will be established for businesses that have questions relating to Smart Industry and are looking for support from relevant experts within Fieldlabs, the TO2 applied research institutions, universities (Smart Industry National Research Agenda), higher professional education (Smart Industry lecturers), secondary professional education and private parties. This support will be tailored towards entrepreneurial activities. The expertise centre will coordinate the roll-out of the Smart Industry assessment. The partners will coordinate their activity calendars and work together to develop a new offering, e.g. tools and masterclasses. They will also coordinate and collaborate with the five regional Smart Industry Hubs.

Result 1. The Smart Industry offering of the government, stakeholders and the education sector will be made transparent for businesses.

2. New themes driven by demand. 3. Project-based demand articulation and project preparation for specific segments

(e.g. the furniture and interior design sector is working in partnership with CBM (industry organization for the interior design and furniture industry), the Chamber of Commerce and TNO).

Parties involved Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, FME, Chamber of Commerce, Koninklijke Metaalunie, TNO and RVO. Where possible, work will be carried out in partnership with the five regional Smart Industry Hubs.




5.3 ‘Fieldlabs’ action line

Over the past few years 32 Fieldlabs have been recognized by the Smart Industry steering group. In Chapter 2 we saw that these have created a solid base for the Smart Industry programme. With close to 165 million euros invested in public-private activities, these Fieldlabs are gaining signifi-cant momentum. Consequently, a distinct position on the international stage is also within sight for the Netherlands. We are keen to keep driving forward this development. Three priorities have been set for the coming period:

1. Further strengthening existing Fieldlabs: - Support and monitoring by a Fieldlab expert team - Knowledge sharing between Fieldlabs - Organization of new funding rounds - Linking of Fieldlabs to European networks and

funding - Linking of university research groups to Fieldlabs - Linking of Fieldlabs to the National Smart Industry

Roadmap (see ‘Knowledge’ action line)

2. Disseminating knowledge acquired from Fieldlabs to the wider business community through the Smart Industry Hubs (see acceleration project 3), vouchers, monitoring and the assessment programme (see Section 5.2, ‘Getting businesses started’ action line).

3. Helping every Fieldlab also become a SkillsLab (see Section 5.5, ‘Skills’ action line).

Launching new Fieldlabs will remain a possibility over the coming period, but this will not be our focus. We will the-refore be assessing applications more strictly on the basis of their contribution to Smart Industry and their comple-mentarity with existing Fieldlabs.

Regional Smart Industry HubsA significant number of Fieldlabs are now active in all regions. To simplify collaboration between these Fieldlabs, allow a number of tasks to be implemented jointly and allow SMEs to make better use of these Fieldlabs, we aim to set up a Smart Industry Hub in every region. This is in keeping with the Digital Innovation Hub concept suppor-ted by the European Commission. These Hubs function as the regional Smart Industry contact point for businesses. The first such Hub has now been opened in South Holland.

Other regions will follow in 2018. These Hubs will not only make the knowledge acquired in the Fieldlabs accessi-ble, but will also serve SMEs in general in relation to any questions they may have on the subject of Smart Industry. This will naturally take place in close collaboration with the Smart Industry Expertise Centre to prevent any unneces-sary overlapping of activities.

3. SMART INDUSTRY HUBS

Aim To create a network of regional Smart Industry Hubs.

Activities A Smart Industry Hub will be established in every region. This will function as a one-stop shop for businesses, coordinate Fieldlabs and SkillsLabs and act as a bridge to Europe and the national programme.

Result Completion of five Smart Industry Hubs.

Parties involved Government authorities, employers’ organizations, Chamber of Commerce, research institutions, regional development agencies, Smart Industry programme office, etc.



5.4 ‘Knowledge’ action line

The Implementation Agenda is placing the emphasis on bringing together and implementing the knowledge available within businesses and Fieldlabs. Developing new knowledge is another important aspect, however. With this in mind a new Smart Industry roadmap has been developed, based around the eight industrial transforma-tions. Taking this roadmap as a basis, the Implementation Agenda will be put into practice via NWO/SIA (National Coordinating Body for Practice-oriented Research) calls for proposals and the TO2 applied research institutions. The Smart Industry roadmap will serve as a guide for efforts undertaken within international research programmes such as Horizon2020.

4. NATIONAL SMART INDUSTRY ROADMAP

Aim The combined NWA/HTSM/ICT Smart Industry Roadmap describes the intended development of Smart Industry knowledge. NWO and TO2 research projects will be selected on the basis of this programme.

Activities Taking the route/roadmap as a starting point, NWO calls for proposals and TO2 demand-driven programmes will be drawn up, selected and launched. All Smart Industry projects will be drawn up and implemented within the framework of partnerships between the public and private sector. Projects of academic, higher professional education and TO2 institutions will be implemented as much as possible within and together with the Smart Industry Fieldlabs. Within Smart Industry efforts will be made to participate in the creation of a new demand-inspired, multi-year programme focusing on artificial intelligence on the basis of a PPP.

Result Development of new Smart Industry knowledge in accordance with the pathways set out in the route/roadmap.

Parties involved NWO, SIA (RAAK higher professional education research funding programme), TO2 (Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research/Netherlands Aerospace Centre/Wageningen University & Research Centre).



5.5 ‘Skills’ action line

The increasing pace of industrial digitization is having a significant impact on employment and education. Developments in recent years have demonstrated that new Smart Industry technology can help people (workers, citizens and end users) in a variety of ways and actually strengthen their position, instead of competing with them or rendering them redundant. The Implementation Agenda is all about ‘empowering people through technology’.

Creating educational working environmentsWe want all workers to be able to play a part in realizing the potential of these new technologies. By robustly sup-porting the learning culture within and around businesses, we can equip workers to deal with the new requirements they will face and also help them contribute actively to productivity improvements and the creation of new busi-ness opportunities. This is a challenge that we will address together with the sectors and the R&D funds.

Helping every Fieldlab also become a SkillsLabTechnological developments realized within Fieldlabs will never reach maturity if no one has the skills required to work with these new technologies. We are therefore aiming to make skills development an integral part of every Fieldlab. Practice-based learning will be of central importance here. There are already a number of good examples of this approach, such as the Sustainability Factory and the Industrial Robotics Fieldlab.

Embedding Smart Industry into initial professional education (preparatory secondary professional education, secondary professional education and higher professional education)To ensure the workforce of the future is well prepared for Smart Industry, initial education needs to be adapted. Considerable attention must be paid to ICT and techno-logy. As far as Smart Industry is concerned, the combina-tion of these two subjects and the link to other areas, such as economics and organizational studies, are of particular importance.

A significant number of secondary and higher professional education institutions and universities have adapted their programmes and are offering new courses. This trend is set to continue over the next few years.

5. LINKING SKILLSLABS TO FIELDLABS

Aim To help every Fieldlab also become a SkillsLab.

Activities • Here we are talking about a combination of theory- and practice-based learning (hybrid learning). This is an effective form of learning both for students in professional education and adults/workers.

• The focus here is a collaborative, project-based approach to real-life problem- solving between students, teachers and workers, with all these groups learning from each other.

• Problems are derived from the challenges facing participating businesses. • The solutions developed are actually put into practice.

Result Fieldlabs are enhanced through the addition of a SkillsLab. At least 1,000 manufacturing industry workers participating each year.

Parties involved Fieldlabs, businesses, secondary/higher professional education institutions, municipalities, provinces, Secondary Professional Education Council, Netherlands Association of Universities of Applied Sciences.




Human-oriented technologyIn the Netherlands we are good at quickly and flexibly developing and manufacturing a complex and varied product mix. At the same time, the manufacturing industry has numerous vacancies to fill and there are people out of work who are being left on the sidelines. Human-oriented technology makes complex tasks easier and could help resolve both these problems. It could also ensure that workers remain able to work in Smart Industry for the long term. A crucial aspect here is the cooperation between humans and technology, with smart technology providing humans with physical and cognitive support as they carry out their work. Technology creates opportunities centred around how the worker is deployed and the performance achieved (productivity, quality and flexibility). Examples of technologies that offer humans physical and cognitive sup-port are collaborative robots, operator support systems (projection, HoloLens, Google Glass, operator apps etc.) and exoskeletons.

6. HUMAN-ORIENTED TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMME

Aim To set up a programme under the motto: “Empowering people through technology”. This programme is developing best practices in this area as a source of inspiration and a guide for developers and users of human-oriented technology.

Activities • Influencing the design and implementation of new smart manufacturing technologies centred around how the worker is deployed and the performance achieved (productivity, quality and flexibility);

• On the basis of the above, developing a number of demonstrators of human- oriented technology that are suitable for use in production;

• Conducting experiments and real-life practical tests with these demonstrators in the area of human-oriented technology and determining their impact on performance and the individual (workload, autonomy, deployability, etc.);

• Determining costs and benefits, the business case (economic and social);• Developing an implementation approach for businesses to help them successfully

implement technology that provides humans with physical and cognitive support;• Disseminating results within Smart Industry businesses, organizations and the

government.

Result Five best practices and demonstrators; overview of impacts on performance and the individual; overview of costs and benefits; widespread acceptance of human-oriented technology.

Parties involved Developers and users of technology, researchers, Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment, UWV (Employee Insurance Agency), sheltered employment services, municipalities.



7. CYBERSECURITY PROGRAMME

Aim To make manufacturing firms digitally resilient by setting up a Smart Industry Digital Trust Centre.

Activities Setting up a Digital Trust Centre at the High-Tech System Park (HTSP) and Brainport Development with a view to creating:• A digital support centre where businesses can obtain help, advice and victim

support.• A hub that brings together specific advice to support Dutch industry.• An environment in which businesses can learn with and from each other how to

improve their digital resilience.• A programme centred around cybersecurity measures linked to technology,

organization and human behaviour within a Smart Industry environment.

Result A range of specific tools and institutions with the aim of increasing the digital resilience of businesses within Smart Industry. This will result in digitally secure chains/ecosystems. Businesses that want to make their products and processes smart will therefore be able to do so in a secure manner.

Parties involved Brainport Development, HTSP, FME, Koninklijke Metaalunie, Novel-T, VNO-NCW (Confederation of Netherlands Industry and Employers), East Netherlands Development Agency, Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, DITSS (Dutch Institute for Technology, Safety and Security), Thales, ‘The Garden’ Fieldlab, province of Overijssel, province of North Brabant.


5.6 ‘Digital environment’ action line

StandardizationThe Smart Industry Standardization Agenda was drawn up in 2017. A platform is currently being set up to deal with its implementation. This platform is focusing on identifying and coordinating the standardization needed for Smart Industry and on directly involving industry in the establish-ment of these agreements, which are increasingly interna-tional in nature. The platform will be launched in the first quarter of 2018.

CybersecurityThe digitization of the Dutch technology industry is making businesses increasingly dependent on ICT. Cyber incidents constitute a real threat to the innovativeness and earnings capacity of this industry. The integration of internet technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) – the technology of the shop floor – and what this means for cybersecurity requires knowledge that is not suffi-ciently available at present. The Dutch Cabinet has made cofinancing available for the establishment of various Digital Trust Centres (DTCs) and has given regions and sectors the opportunity to submit programme proposals. Within Smart Industry we are currently setting up a DTC programme together with the Eastern Netherlands and Brainport Eindhoven regions to promote an increase in maturity in this area by and for manufacturing firms. In addition, TNO is currently putting the finishing touches

to an online cybersecurity test that will give SMEs an insight into areas where there is still room for improvement to ensure they take a cyber-secure approach to Smart Industry.


8. DATA-SHARING PROGRAMME

Aim To establish a Data Value Centre and Data-sharing Coalition.Proposition of the Smart Industry Data Value Centre:• Advice for businesses• Application of chain solutions• Facilitated by a secure data infrastructure• Information, training and skills

Activities Data Value Centre – support makes the difference:• One-stop shop for all SMEs and free initial consultation• Guidance in asking the right question• Advice on solutions• Fostering of PPPs• Ecosystem made available: knowledge, partners and network• Standardized solutions worked on• Education and training

Result Businesses, including SMEs, are supported so they quickly get to a position where they can do more with data.

Parties involved Brainport Development, province of North Brabant, BOM (Brabant Development Agency), Brainport Industries, TNO, Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, JADS (Jheronimus Academy of Data Science), SURF (ICT organization for Dutch education and research) and KPN. Other parties can also join this programme.


Data sharingIndustrial digitization cannot take place without exchan-ging data securely and reliably. In recent years various activities have been undertaken to simplify data sharing. For example, a standard contract has been developed that allows parties in a chain who want to share data to make agreements on this subject more easily.

In 2018 various parties will be working together to set up a Data Value Centre (DVC) for Smart Industry. This is a secure and reliable environment where small and large businesses, chains and Fieldlabs can exchange and pro-cess data and develop new business propositions. It is also the place to go for expertise in the area of data sharing.

We are also talking to various parties (Fieldlabs and a number of businesses) with a view to setting up a broader Data-sharing Programme under the auspices of a Data-sharing Coalition.


5.7 Collaboration with the regions

As outlined in Chapter 3, the regions are taking active steps in the area of Smart Industry. We are keen to take fuller advantage of this energy at regional level by strengthening the collaboration between the Smart Industry programme office and the regions. We will be learning more from each other, coordinating activities and investing together in projects. The most concrete example of this approach are the Smart Industry Hubs (see Section 5.3, acceleration project 3). These will be working closely together with the Smart Industry Expertise Centre (see Section 5.2, acceleration project 2). This cooperation with the regions will also be embedded within the Smart Industry steering group. In this way we will create a network of regional and thematic Hubs along-side the national Expertise Centre (see Figure 13).

5.8 Internationalization

Smart Industry does not stop at national borders. Standards are determined on an international level. Many countries are now working on digitization agendas and our businesses are highly dependent on exports, with a significant number of Dutch firms supplying firms in Germany, for example. It is therefore extremely impor-tant that we are aligned with international developments. With this in mind an international working group has been established within Smart Industry. This is focusing on three different areas: bilateral contacts with countries, internati-onal research programmes and the European digitization agenda, including Digital Innovation Hubs. With regard to bilateral contacts, we are initially focusing on Germany, with its Industrie 4.0 programme, and Belgium, which has launched a programme under the banner Factory of the Future. In the area of standardization, secure data sharing and skills, the aim is to develop a specific partnership programme. We also want to ensure that Dutch industry is aligned as fully as possible with international OEMs and that there is greater collaboration with businesses outside the Netherlands on smart solutions and products.

9. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS WITH SMART INDUSTRY

Aim To organize concrete collaborative projects between businesses and knowledge institutions in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.

Activities Round table, bilateral contacts, matchmaking, Hannover Messe trade mission.

Result Cooperation agenda for the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.

Parties involved Smart Industry programme office, Top Sectors HTSM and ICT, FME, TNO, ISAH, Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy.



Chapter 6 / Finance and organization

6.1 Introduction

The key objective of the Implementation Agenda is to speed up digitization within Dutch businesses. Smart Industry should lead to new exportable business propo-sitions. By focusing on the development of an ambitious, internationally leading programme, we are continuing to build on our unique, integrated ecosystem within which businesses, knowledge institutions and the government work together closely on implementation and breakthrough innovations. Here we are cooperating closely with the Top Sectors HTSM and ICT and are embedding this partnership into the organization.

In Chapter 2 we made clear that a solid basis for Smart Industry has been laid over the past few years. With close to 165 million euros having been invested in public-private activities in the Fieldlabs, a certain focus and mass has been achieved and a distinct position on the international stage is within sight for the Netherlands. It is important that we keep driving forward this develop-ment and this Implementation Agenda provides a basis for doing so.

6.2 Organization

To make implementation more effective, our approach is organized around concrete activities and the partners involved in them. The aim is to become a programme implemented for and by businesses to an even greater extent. This approach has been translated into the nine acceleration projects outlined above and is also reflected in our organization and the new or intensified partnerships we have entered into. Our partnership with the regions will be structured in an even more strategic way in the future. We will also be entering into longer-term relationships with (large) businesses, including within the framework of the acceleration projects.

Programme officeThe programme office will be expanded and will work together closely with the parties coordinating the accele-ration projects. The budget for the programme office has roughly doubled to € 300,000 a year.

Steering groupThe activities of the steering group will be updated, with a particular focus on the regions, sectors and ICT.

Smart Industry ForumThe role of the Smart Industry Forum will also be updated. Rather than being an advisory body, the Forum will func-tion more as a platform for strategic consultation between parties actively involved in Smart Industry.

AmbassadorsWe now have almost two hundred Smart Industry Ambassadors who are actively helping to promote the Smart Industry philosophy. Over the coming year they will be involved further in the roll-out of the eight industrial transformations and nine acceleration projects, amongst other things. They have already played a role in the Internationalization acceleration project.

RegionsAs already mentioned in Section 5.3, a substantial propor-tion of the activities will be carried out by or in partnership with the regional Smart Industry coalitions. These activities will be organized within Smart Industry Hubs so that each region has a clear Smart Industry contact point.

A new agenda for the future



6.3 Budget

Substantial investment is needed to realize the objectives of the Implementation Agenda. In recent years the level of public funding available has been limited, partly as a result of the financial crisis.

The Coalition Agreement of the Rutte III Cabinet provides a sufficient basis to underpin the Smart Industry Implementation Agenda 2018-2021. Structurally embed-ding the Smart Industry programme within policies and budgets is the chosen approach. The acceleration of Smart Industry is supported by:

• An increase in the public funding percentage for PPPs• Scope for process innovation within existing tools for

SMEs, such as the R&D tax credit, the MIT scheme (which promotes innovation by SMEs across regions and Top Sectors) and the IPC scheme, building on the pilot conducted in South Holland

• Implementation of the new Smart Industry Roadmap as a matter of priority. To this end attention will be focused primarily on consolidating the efforts of the TO2 institutions in the area of Smart Industry, including a budget for the application of knowledge within SMEs

• Creation of experimentation areas and zones exempt from regulations to allow new digital technology to be tested and implemented

• Investment in cybersecurity in the Industry domain• Ongoing use of ERDF funds, preferably by means of a

simplified scheme

• Use of funds from the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science and the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment for the purpose of developing skills

It is important that a targeted budget is made available for a mission-driven Smart Industry programme. In recent years the Smart Industry approach has been dependent on a wide range of different instruments. Despite this fragmentation, significant investments have been made. However, this situation is not tenable if we are to actually accelerate developments in this area.

This will naturally depend on the formulation of an effec-tive programme and the commitment of other public and private parties. With this Implementation Agenda we have set out a robust proposition for public and private investments. The starting point here is a balance between public and private funding (50/50), with the private share increasing as the programme progresses. The graph below shows the investments that have been awarded (dark colours) and investments planned (light colours) within the framework of the Implementation Agenda.
