We offer organisations access to advanced, safe and secured digital testbeds - controlled, real-world environments where new technologies, solutions and processes can be safely tested, refined, and validated before full-scale implementation.
Our research-driven testbed services are designed to support innovation and efficiency, , reduce risk, and accelerate digital transformation in supply chains.
Use Our Existing Testbed
Organisations can tap into our established testbed environment, designed for:
- Dynamic inventory optimisation
- Demand forecasting and Supply shock analysis
- Scope 3 emissions analysis
This ready-to-use controlled, collaborative and comprehensive digital platform enables you to explore and evaluate digital tools in a low-risk, high-impact setting, helping you make informed decisions backed by real data.
Bespoke Testbed Design & Development
We also create custom testbeds tailored to your specific operational challenges. Using our own cutting-edge technologies, we build environments that simulate your supply chain conditions, allowing you to test new solutions with confidence.
Our most recent innovation, the Digital Testbed for the spares manufacturing supply chain, demonstrates how powerful this approach can be. It provides a transparent, replicable, and collaborative space for testing unproven or combined technologies—ideal for sectors like manufacturing, logistics, and IoT.
Why Use a Testbed?
- Experiment with new technologies in a safe, controlled environment without disrupting the real-world operations
- Identify and resolve issues before full deployment
- Validate the impact of digital tools on your operations
- Build confidence in your investment decisions
- Foster efficiency, resilience and sustainability in your supply chain
Flexible Funding Models
We offer flexible engagement options:
- Directly contracted projects for individual organisations
- Collaborative research projects supported by external funding where appropriate (e.g. Innovate UK KTP)
