CANEUS 2009 Workshops

Materials Sector Consortium

Download notes from the Sector Consortia sessions here

The “Case for CANEUS Sector Consortia” is a block of four sessions that will occur on the Monday morning:

Mission, Vision & Goals,
Aerospace Technology Gap: The Case for Sector Consortia,
Implementation Approach and Success Criteria, and
Programmatic Issues for the Sector Consortia.

For those participants who may be unaware of the CANEUS framework and the raison d’être of the CANEUS Sector Consortia, this acts as a preliminary introduction to the days to come during the Workshops. Additionally, these sessions will help participants particularly in the Workshop sessions to understand the success criteria that CANEUS can use to gauge project completion and milestone achievements, and the avenues to be pursued to overcome challenges such as intellectual property, funding, and government regulations (such as ITAR).

Mission, Goals and Roadmap Sessions (Wednesday - March 4)

Sector Consortia: Mission, Goals, and Roadmap

The goal of these breakout sessions is to create and formalize the Roadmap of each of the Sector Consortia. The roadmaps will include each Sector Consortium’s goals and missions, in addition to its scope of work and the vision of both its short- and long-term activities. An overview of each Consortium’s past activities and achievements will precede discussion

Project Development (Wednesday - March 4)

Sector Consortia: Project Development and Framework

The goal of these breakout sessions is to define projects and project concepts. A general project plan coherent with the roadmap outlined in the previous session will be drafted (6 months, 1 year, 2 years). Participants will address business development issues, such as NDA, IP, and government regulations

Subgroup	Materials	Micro-Energetics
Chair	Alain Pignolet INRS, Canada (TBC)	Eugene Zakar US Army

Roadmap Refinement (Friday - March 6)

Sector Consortia: Roadmap Refinement

These breakout sessions aim to refine the Roadmaps previously laid out. Participants in each Sector Consortium will specify tasks and assign responsibilities with timelines to execute the Roadmap

Same as Session on Wednesday

Project Refinement (Friday - March 6)

Sector Consortia: Project Refinement

These breakout sessions aim to refine the well-defined projects previously reviewed: participants will outline teaming and funding schemes, plan project oversight and execution, and establish milestones from which to gauge success of the project.

Same as Session on Wednesday

Sector Consortia Reports (Friday - March 6)

These plenary sessions aim to summarize the output of each of the Sector Consortia workshop sessions. In these sessions, workshop participants have the opportunity to learn about the activities and roadmaps of other Sector Consortia.
