Produktion 2000 is a German federal framework programme which supports the development of technology, organisation and qualification for production in industry. The Programme was launched in 1995 in view of the urgent need for improvement felt by industry itself after a very careful analysis and definition phase.
The Programme is managed by a special Agency on behalf of the Federal Ministry. Their staff offers support in defining, implementing, running and controlling collaborative industry-driven projects and by awarding financial grants to the project partners. Strategic projects and first results are reported.
