WG Progress

Task 1: Refine Technology Matrix

A meeting was held to identify common priorities among the WG participants with respect to technology development and demonstration

Specific areas of interest were down-selected from the general Priority Technologies Matrix (previously published in June 2009 FMP report)

A summary of the final results was prepared and circulated among participants (refer to table on following slide for an overview)

Status: Completed – September, 2010

www.aiac.ca

WG Progress

Task 2: Develop Tech Demo Project Proposals

A standard template was developed to facilitate the collection of project ideas from within the WG

Individual organizations were requested to prepare project proposals reflecting each group’s technology priorities – participants were encouraged to work together in the development of collaborative proposals

Original deadline for submission of project ideas was 1 Oct – subsequently extended at the request of the participants to allow additional time for proposal preparation

Currently expect to receive submissions by end of Oct (anticipate 13 – 15 projects)

Status: On-Going

Next Steps: WG meeting to be held early Nov to review submissions and

decide on way forward

FMP technology – company mapping

Early 2010 FMP technology matrix was updated by all sub-groups

Under NDA signed in October 2009 Airbus provided confidential technology needs information for FMP to NRC, IC.

NRC Aerospace (IAR, IRAP) and IC have developed a confidential list of companies in Canada relevant to the Airbus needs.

AIAC has been encouraging these companies to join FMP TDPs

Airbus is working on ways to develop a path for lower tiers to Airbus new programs.
