InnoWaTr Centre of Expertise

21

Our FFCs reflect different development

stages of coalition building along the

implementation , testing and final testing

of IWT - based supply chains .

Thus , our FFCs offer valuable insights into

collaborative processes . They also

highlight external challenges our FFCs

faced , both along traditional , long -

distance supply chains and in urban

environments .

InnoWaTr ´ s FFCs build on innovative

technologies . Digital twins help

stakeholders understand effects of FFCs ,

remote controlled sailing keep costs at

bay and automated mooring makes

IWT safer .

The Centre of Expertise documents the

InnoWaTr journey by linking experience

from FFC building with innovative

technology use
