Deliverable D20.1 Communication and Dissemination Plan

The FP3-IAM4RAIL project focuses on seven different integrated demonstrators for rail assets which are key for Research and Innovation (R&I) in the rail sector. Integrating asset condition information obtained via advanced monitoring with decision-making tools and into the Traffic Management System (TMS), combining available information with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital twins are key R&I topics covered in FP3-IAM4RAIL.

FP3-IAM4RAIL aims to reinforce the next generation of Intelligent and Integrated Rail Asset Management, providing and demonstrating innovative solutions covering fixed and rolling stock assets, minimizing the life cycle costs of assets and extend their lifetime, while meeting safety requirements and improving the reliability, availability, and maintainability of the rail system.

The communication and dissemination plan is a living document setting out a strategy to maximise the impact of the FP3-IAM4RAIL project, to increase its visibility and to ensure that the project outputs reach a wide audience of relevant stakeholders. The plan is based on EU-Rail’s communication policy and communication strategy and on the common goal of strengthening the overall EU-Rail programme1, while addressing the specific objectives and topics covered by FP3- IAM4RAIL. This is done by highlighting FP3-IAM4RAIL as an important contribution to all EU-Rail projects.
