D5.19 Report on the contribution to standardisation -3 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Spanish Association for Standardization (UNE), as a European Standardization Body, is a partner in the MADRAS project to provide support regarding the standardization tasks included in the project. In order to fulfil this commitment, this deliverable D5.19 "Report on the contribution to standardisation 3" has been prepared to show the partners the steps to standardize the results of the project identified as potential new work item proposals, considering that Standardization has been used as a valuable input for the project.

The standardization environment has also been used for dissemination of the results of the project within the industry and public administration, via technical committees. Standardization documents are commonly used in public and private community as the reference for industrial practices in Europe. Thus, including the results of the MADRAS project in a CEN document was considered as a high success that should be pursued.

D5.19 “Report on the contribution to standardisation 3” will collect the actions performed for the contribution to standardisation from MADRAS and the results obtained. The contribution to standardisation seeks to transfer selected results of MADRAS to standards (EN/CLC/ISO/IEC).

D5.19 is part of Task T5.8 “Contribution to the ongoing and future standardisation developments” and is based in the conclusions of D5.16 “Report on the standardisation landscape” that included the information on the relevant existing and ongoing standards and the relevant standardisation technical committees to facilitate the use of existing knowledge and the compatibility and the interoperability of the results.

D5.19 contains several solutions to solve comments received by P.O to D5.18 during last review meeting. In this Deliverable 5.19 we proceed to show the progress of the standardization activity as was designed in the grant agreement This document will include what is planned post-project with respect to the standards.

The main goal in task 5.8 was the drafting (and if possible, the publication) of CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA). After the assessment of published deliverables of the MADRAS project made in M30, UNE presented to CEN a Business Plan for the activation of three projects based on three of the objectives of the MADRAS project:

• Enhance the device integration process, increasing resistance to humidity and wear and tear, and adding custom-made connectors.
• Create plastronic products combining electronics’ functional printing and electronic components’ hybridisation with traditional plastic transformation processes, such as thermoforming and injection moulding
• Establish best practices on the design of printed antennas (UHF and UWB) by simulation considering the presence of a TPU layer

The activation was accepted, and the first meeting of “MADRAS” Workshop took place in A VIRTUAL MEETING in November 2022. The successful result of this group is the publication in June 2023, of the CEN document CWA.

The European standardization system is a tool comparable to the “peer-review” used in the innovation initiatives, as industry and public bodies from European 33 countries receive the information and can react, comment and participate. The main dissemination result of this project is the CWA document, but the dissemination of the project through the standardization system, in physical meetings or using the digital tools of CEN, are also a very interesting source of visibility for the MADRAS project.
