White paper

The Materials Information Challenge in Engineering Enterprises (PDF format)
by Stephen Warde, David Cebon, Will Marsden, Patrick Coulter, Arthur Fairfull

This white paper draws on Granta's experience of working with the MDMC, a consortium that includes organizations such as NASA, Rolls-Royce, Honeywell, and Alcan. The paper identifies the key challenges faced by such enterprises in their management and use of materials information, and computes the return on investment from emerging materials information technology. This return can be substantial, potentially exceeding $10 for every $1 invested.
