Transport Technology Systems Network

Against the often declining economical development in the German capital region, transport system technology has been a driving force for growth and new jobs in recent years. Current analyses (DB Research, Boston Consulting Group) see the Centre of Excellence for transport system technology located in BerlinBrandenburg in an exceptional position and with a high economic potential for the region. The mix of all sectors and technologies, the comprehensive research environment and the close collaboration between users and operators are characteristic for transport system technology in BerlinBrandenburg. The small-scale structure of the business landscape, however, is also typical. Approximately 80 percent of the over 400 transport technology companies are small and medium enterprises with less than 20 employees.

The number of jobs in the production sector of transport system technology in the region has increased by 1,300 over the past three years. The following were determining factors for this development:

• Wide and multidisciplinary research environment
• The capital region is an internationally recognised test and application area for innovative transport and mobility solutions, e.g. for testing new fuels and drive systems in road traffic
• Innovative network projects between science and economy to develop system and subsystem competence
• Integration of the region in development partnerships on a European level

Transport system technology has traditional roots in the region and has been a strong pillar of the industry already in the past. Building on existing strengths, the industry is an important economic factor for the region and the past years have shown that it has great potential for growth. The following details are pointed out as examples:

• Historic location for transport system technology – The region can look back on a rich tradition, for instance in railway system technology (115 companies) and in aircraft construction (aeronautics and aerospace technology: 45 companies)
• High requirements – The region has high requirements for high quality transport system solutions with urban Berlin and rural Brandenburg
• European hub – The region will face an exceptionally high transport volume in the future due to its location
• Capital function – The proximity of the region to national decision makers facilitates the worldwide marketing of innovations
• Showcase function – Transport systems meeting the requirements of the region are also interesting for other regions of the world
• Excellent research environment – Groundbreaking research facilities offer an attractive setting for the development of existing enterprises and to attract new investments

The FAV Berlin as an initiative of the Berlin Technology Foundation, Berlin University of Technology and the Berlin Senate brings regional players together in the sense of a coherent strategy. It manages the Centre of Excellence Transport System Technology serving science, economy, operators and political decision makers in the capital region. At the same time, the FAV provides initiatives for projects and guides their implementation with currently 160 million Euro and a leverage of 1:60.

The FAV is a neutral mediator between players and concentrates on the strategic fields of the cluster and the Centre of Excellence Transport and Mobility defined in regional consensus (e.g. mobil2010):

• Railway system technology, R&D hub for railway system technology research, education and training with research and development projects (e.g. EURNEX, Modtrain)
• Transport telematics/logistics, “Berlin Intermodal”, the most up-to-date traffic management centre in Europe and the BB logistics centre in campus operation (ETF) with VLB, VMZ, VKRZ as well as the Telematics and Galileo Application Centres
• Automotive technology, Automotive Engineering Centre for safety, drive technology, mechatronics and materials with R&D projects Coopers, SteamCell APU, co-evolution engine fuel
• Aeronautics and aerospace technology together with BBAA, a strong, self-supporting aviation centre and East German small satellite integration centre

These Centres of Excellence have already created a stable critical mass in the capital region and established regional and complementary international value chains as well as a high scientific-technological, operative-economical potential.

In combination with a growing need for transport services, this can support and strengthen the current positive trend for technology and employment in the Centre of Excellence Transport and Mobility in the capital region.

Task of the FAV/TSB is the management of the Centre of Excellence transport and mobility in the capital region. The FAV is responsible for the following tasks:

• Position the BerlinBrandenburg region as one of the leading markets for science and economy in the area transport system technology in Germany and Europe (promoting regional development)
• Initiate, moderate and enhance qualified networks from science, economy and politics (networking)
• Strengthen the transfer of ideas, know-how, technologies and appli- cations from science to economy (technology transfer)
• Inititation, development, attendance and sometimes management of regional, national and international network projects Acquisition of the required start up fi nancing (EC, Bund, region, ...)

The professional focus of the FAV’s work is based on the following innovation potentials and competencies:

• Sustainable mobility (optimised public transport, business and individual transport, BBI Airport)
• Optimised transport flows, intermodal transport telematics
• Transnational transport – competitive railway systems
• Automotive technology/alternative drives/beyond passive safety
• Aircraft propulsion, safety and security
• Aerospace, small satellites

The work of the FAV Berlin relies on its two networks, the company network and the research network and national as well as international cooperations. The company network offers small and medium transport system technology enterprises in the region a central contact point and a platform for the development of new ideas, products and cooperation relationships. The research network of the FAV is the scientific counterpart and, besides offering a platform for discussion across the boundaries of disciplines, it follows two goals:

• Guarantee the required interdisciplinary functions for handling complex research projects in the transport system technology sector from a single source
• Distinguish transport research through professional marketing and early, problem specific networking with companies on the production and operation side to accelerate the implementation of application specific research results

The interaction between company and research network is especially important. As the FAV coordinates both networks, knows the competencies of their members and brings partners together in project specific discussions, quick access to suitable companies and research facilities to create problem-oriented project teams is guaranteed. With this approach, interdisciplinary system competence on a regional level can be realised on a larger scale than before in many areas of transport system technology while at the same time integrating large corporations and operators.

Transport system technology in the capital region currently provides 47,300 jobs in the industry and in small and medium enterprises and employs 1,960 scientific staff in research facilities. Additionally, operators in the transport sector (such as DB AG, BVG) provide almost 48,000 jobs. Beyond that, approximately 150,000 people in the region are employed in the sector logistics and transport services. The number of jobs in the production sector of transport system technology in the region has increased by 1,300 over the past three years.

With R&D investments at 4.3 percent of the GDP, Berlin has already exceeded the requirements formulated in the Lisbon strategy 3.0 per­cent, (EU average: 1.9 percent, German average: 2.6 percent). With R&D investments of 3.3 billion Euro (6.2 percent of all German R&D investments), Berlin is in sixth place of all German states. However, other regions benefit from a large part of Berlin’s R&D budget.

The four Centres of Excellence of the capital region in the transport system technology sector are:

• Railway system technology with 18,200 employees and 500 scientific staff
• Automotive technology with 18,500 employees and 560 scientific staff
• Aeronautics and aerospace technology with 2,700 employees and 200 scientific staff
• Transport telematics and transport logistics with 7,500 employees and 590 scientific staff

Approximately 80 percent of the over 400 transport technology companies are small and medium enterprises with less than 20 employees.

Via existing strategic alliances and contacts to leading scientific facilities from european and extraeuropean abroad the BerlinBrandenburg competences in transport technologies are strengthened and developed constantly.

International strategic alliances for knowledge exchange and for the efficient build of international project teams, particularly for european projects exist with:
· Institute of Transport Studies Leeds (ITS),
· Université de Valenciennes et du Hainaut Cambresis (UVHC) ,
· Ontwikkelingsbedrijf Rotterdam (OBR),
· Transportes Inovacao e Sistemas Lissabon (TIS),
· Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) ,
· Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich (ETH) and
· Hong Kong University of Sciences and Technology

Further european contacts exist by project networks with:
· Instituto Nacional de Engenharia e Technologia Lissabon (INETI),
· National Technical University of Athen (NTUA),
· Narwick Institute of Technology (NIT),
· Organisation Gestion Marketing Brüssel (OGM) ,
· Erasmus University Rotterdam ,

· Technical University of Vienna ,
· Transport Service Posnan

Main goal of the research network and the company network of FAV is to overcome the historical deeply rooted assumption, that results in research and development can be achieved and used individually in each company. Due to globally relevant structural changes today companies and researchers are forced to multicompanial and multidisciplinary thinking and acting. In Germany's (national) economy small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) do play an important role. Based upon their existing individual strength, well supported SME realise their high potentials. E.g. members of the company network do have a huge potential in research & development (R&D). The high personnel investments in R&D, combined with the high share of re-invested turnover show the important rule of R&D for the region. The region's excellent international research reputation bases upon the high competence of the existing universities and other research institutes. Next to the existing competences in the region, e.g. railway technologies, new growth fields and markets like transport telematics e.g. can be occupied with the active help of the regional policy makers.

Important projects in the field of transport and mobility research:

EUDD – European Driver’s Desk
Sponsor: EU (5th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development) Partners: FAV Berlin (coordinator), all large European railway system manufacturers (Bombardier, Siemens, Alstom and Ansaldobreda), suppliers Deuta-Werke, Faiveley and SGW Werder, international associations UiC and UNIFE, scientific institutions IAS Berlin, TU Wien, UPC Barcelona and TU Berlin as well as a user platform with operators DB AG, SNCF, Trenitalia, ÖBB, MAV and SBB. Duration: 01/2001 – 02/2004

The railway driver’s desk of the future, ergonomically optimised and modularised, was designed, tested and prepared for serial production in the EUDD project. It represents an important component for simplifying transnational railway transport in Europe through the harmonisation of technical systems together with the optimisation of operational procedures. The success of the project is based on the fact that all partners – railway system manufacturers, suppliers, operators as well as international associations – have a new culture of coperation from the start. The mutually developed driver’s desk layout was specifi ed in detail and constructed as a functional model on a 1:1 scale. Tests of the functional model in a drive simulator with train drivers from seven countries confi rmed the ergonomic advantages of the EUDD layout. Independent of individual and country specifi c experiences, more than 40 test drivers were able to master even the most diffi cult drive situations without errors, although they were only given a few minutes to familiarise themselves with the operating concept. Analysis of the economic effects of a Europe-wide introduction of EUDD showed life cycle cost advantages of at least 15 percent compared to today’s reference driver desks. The fi rst systems based on the EUDD concept are already being introduced, not only thanks to their measurable economic advantages.

At the same time, the EUDD layout is used as a central component for the major Modular Train project started in early 2004.

MODTRAIN – Modular Train
Sponsor: EU (6th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development) Partners: All European railway system manufacturers (Bombardier, Siemens, Alstom, Ansaldobreda), the largest European train operators (DB AG, SNCF, Trenitalia), suppliers, associations and scientifi c institutions (such as TU Berlin, FAV Berlin [project manager together with Bombardier]), Duration: 02/2004 – 01/2008

The integrated project MODTRAIN started in early 2004 is currently the largest European project in railway system technology. It will provide a fundamental contribution to the economical production and operation of next generation high speed trains and universal locomotives by defi ning and specifying standardised interfaces and interchangeable modules on a European level. All important European players are involved – on the industry side as well as the operator side. The project also incorporates a number of scientifi c institutions and is coordinated by the UNIFE network for the railway supply industry.

EURNEX – European Rail Research Network of Excellence
The EU project European Rail Research Network of Excellence (EURNEX) integrates the previously fragmented railway research efforts in Europe to increase their efficiency. 66 excellent partners from 18 European countries and over 600 researchers collaborate in the EURNEX project managed by the FAV to pool research efforts in a single source and deliver the highest quality. Their goal is to create a standardised market for railway research that provides the required scientific excellence to successfully implement a sustainable transport policy in the European Union.

Fundamental goals of EURNEX:

• Integration of previously fragmented railway research efforts to stabilise and extend Europe’s leading position in this sector
• Contribution of railway research to a sustainable European trans- port policy
• Improvement of competitive ability and economic stability of the railway sector by creating a customer oriented and sustainable network
• Provision of integrated knowledge and innovations for railway op- erators and supply industry through universities and research institutesPermanent establishment of the network by creating and implementing a sustainable business plan

COOPERS – Co-operative systems for intelligent road safety
The integrated EU project COOPERS is running over four years and started in January 2006. The overall budget is approximately 18 million Euro and the project is supported by the EU within the 6th European Union Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development. Current road traffic information is marked by various communication networks for different specialised information services. This is the reason why communication possibilities between infrastructure operators and vehicles are a barrier for up-to date traffic information and services to increase road safety. COOPERS is based on convergent networks for bi-directional infrastructures – vehicle data transmission for implementing interconnected services along the travel route.

Berlin Intermodal
This pioneer activity integrates R&D and demonstration projects that mu­tually support the integration of traffic information from separate private and public means of transport, increase the safety in private and pu­blic transport and support acceptance as well as a change of awareness towards public transport when choosing the means of transport. Target groups are authorities and organisations with safety relevant tasks as well as users requiring route recommendations as tourists or visitors of large events.

Berlin Intermodal demonstrates the implementation of a modern transport management model.

Goals of the project are:

• Development of a real-time system to integrate information from separate transport carriers (individual transport and public transport)
• Individual and intermodal real-time route recommendations
• Promoting the acceptance of a change of awareness towards choosing public transport over individual transport (guaranteed connec- tions, safety and security improvements)
• Improvement of travel information and forecast (pre-trip and on-trip)
• Integration of offi cial and police escort trafficAdditional provision of (airborne) traffic data, especially for large events (2006 World Cup, ILA)

While big industries act regional, national, international and global, the SME members of the FAV competence network naturally focus the BerlinBrandenburg market, particularly for reference projects. Even though on the long run every innovative company's perspective is the supraregional market.FAV with its networks and actors makes this market move towards BerlinBrandenburg.By integrating SME into european projects BerlinBrandenburg products and technology-fields of application are proved to be world class. Thus demand potentials, reaching far beyond the region's demand, are opened.

Railway Technology:
The railway technology is a historically grown focus of the BerlinBrandenburg region. At the moment immense restructurings are on the run due to declining demand and a higher pressure on prices. In the medium term tendencies of globalization, like e.g. in the aeronautical and space technology also will be perceived here.After the present phase of concentration, where liquidity beats profitability, the railway technology will increase its global competitiveness by using modern processes (e.g. life circle cost), by bundling the intelligence in rolling material and by forming new european alliances, e.g. equivalent to the Airbus consortia.The rail-testing center Hennigsdorf as an integrative testing field for innovative railway systems thus becomes an essential part for railway technology in the region.

Intermodal transport telematics:
The development of transport telematics profits from new possibilities in satellite navigation, earth observation, optic communication, electronic pricing and the information technology in general. Thus companies with technical and innovative orientation receive the chance to enter a promising market for new ideas and services.With its high scientific potentials and the situated actors in this field, BerlinBrandenburg has extraordinary good conditions to develop to a Center of Excellence in transport telematics .FAV is going to establish a Center of Excellence transport telematics .Science, innovative SME and service providers develop customer oriented and specific transport telematic applications.

Transport logistics:
In globally linked markets, economic regions are successful by the help of efficient transport and information infrastructure and with improved logistic systems for industry, commerce and service. With the University of Technology Berlin (TU Berlin) and the Brandenburg Technical University Cottbus (BTU Cottbus) BerlinBrandenburg is one of the leading european teaching and research region in the field of logistics. This outstanding position is completed by famous companies which develop and globally capitalize several services in logistics.E-business will enforce major changes in the logistics for all business areas.Sustainable solutions for physical transport will be promoted by an immense and worldwide increase of demand due to e-business.

Automotive technology:
BerlinBrandenburg is not the outstanding region in Germany concerning automotive technology. Nevertheless, the automotive technology in BerlinBrandenburg offers - summarising all companies - a similar number of employees like the railway technology. More and more system and subsystem responsibilities are left in the region's companies which hinds at a growth of importance of this transport technology field.BMW produces all its motorcycles in Berlin, DaimlerChrysler produces one series exclusively in Ludwigsfelde. A van will be produced at the same location soon. At Berlin Marienfelde whole engines for automobiles (MCC Smart and 12-cylinders) are produced by DaimlerChrysler.The new "Lausitzring" as a test range for vehicles and subsystems in the south of Brandenburg has good chances to enlarge the interest of system suppliers from the automotive industry.

Aeronautics:
Aviation and aerospace industry as a high-tech growing sector combines technological value added with strategic importance. Considerable know-how is summarized within the scientific institutes of the region - even more than in the dominant fields of propulsion technology, centers of simulation and competent suppliers.Market driven dynamics as well as new german and european funding programs offer considerable chances for BerlinBrandenburg's SME on their way to collaborate in risk sharing partnerships.

Inland Navigation:
Capacity in goods transport, the importance of waterways for tourism plus possibilities for increased use in inner-city transports are potentials of the region's inland navigation.Berlin's geographical position as an east-western turntable for shipping offers good conditions for a further development of shipping. The further development of competence is based upon a wide spread science and on the selected abilities of BerlinBrandenburg companies'.

BerlinBrandenburg offers a lot of higher educational and training possibilities. Selected study offers of network partners:
Brandenburg Technical University (BTU) Cottbus
Technical University (TFH) Wildau
University for Technology and Economy (FHTW) Berlin
University of Applied Sciences and Economy (FHTW) Berlin
