📋 Tender Overview
The Orano group and its partners are launching a development project known as udd@Orano for Usines De Demain Plants of Tomorrow on Orano industrial sites in order to accelerate deployment of the plant of the future on the groups industrial sites.Coordinated by Orano this project brings together 11 industrial partners for a period of 36 months 6 VSB-SMEs Aeraccess Axionable Diota ObdO Shark Robotics Silane 2 large companies Predict Probayes and 3 research organizations CEA Ecole des Mines de Saint-Etienne and Universit Jean Monnet de Saint-Etienne.For the duration of the project Orano and its partners will be pooling their expertise to develop and implement new technological solutions. For example their work will focus on the design of innovative miniaturized sensors for more efficient radiological measurement. New algorithms based on artificial intelligence AI will also be developed to facilitate decision-making support and anticipation of actions. Mixed reality platforms using 3D digital models and the dematerialization of flows will help operators working in constrained environments. And new robots will be developed to perform complex remote operations and automate simple tasks. These new solutions applicable both to the nuclear sector and industry as a whole aim to ensure that Oranos industrial sites continue to operate at the highest technological levels in order to improve performance production plant competitiveness and operator safety. They will also support the development and growth of VSB-SME partners by promoting the disruptive technological solutions developed in the framework of the project. Lastly they will facilitate the development of new knowledge and innovative technological building blocks helping to strengthen the industrial base of France as a whole.The udd@Orano project meets the criteria of the economic stimulus plan introduced by the French government. Under the plan it benefits from a subsidy of 10.48m awarded by France Relance to all the partners involved.The project offers the prospect of significant economic benefits including additional turnover of more than 11m per year from 2025 for its VSB and SME partners and the creation of more than 70 skilled direct jobs in France and a similar number of indirect ones.
