management and technology transfer. The “Steinbeis Advanced Risk Technologies” group of units deals with various aspects of risks, risk engineering and risk management, in:

• petro-chemical and process plants
• power plants and energy supply
• material technologies, especially advanced material technologies
• new & alternative technologies (CO2, H2, nano, …)
• other areas

Main practical issues dealt with are:

• risks in/of innovation (e.g. risks of unexpected side-effects)
• risk of non-performance or performance below expectations (e.g. risks of system or component failures)
• risk of adverse/unexpected effects and impacts (e.g. on public health and/or environment)
• risks over the life-cycle of products and technologies (e.g. unexpected problems in decommissioning or recycling phase)
• risk-based inspection (RBI)
• reliability centered maintenance (RCM)
• project risks, especially in innovation, R&D and new technologies oriented projects.

Organizing European and national stakeholders, promoting and supporting technology transfer, introducing new approaches to the risks and their management, developing specific methods and tools are examples of these activities.

R-Tech is also one of the five founding members of  European Virtual Institute for Integrated Risk Management EU-VRi. The institute (www.eu-vri.eu) is an EEIG (European Economic Interest Grouping). The group is capable to cover the above topics either on its own or in close co-operation with Steinbeis network, European Virtual Institute for Integrated Risk Management (EU-VRi), Virtual Institute of Knowledge-based Multifunctional Materials (KMM-VIN), European Technology Platform Industrial Safety (ETPIS) and other networks (all involving over 2,000 persons and over 500 companies).
The activities of the R-Tech group involve projects and activities on industrial, national, EU, and international level, tackling, e.g.:

• integrated management of risk related to new technologies (e.g the iNTeg-Risk project)
• smart resilience indicators for Smart Critical Infrastructures (SCIs) (SmartResilience Project)
• standardization it the area of emerging risks and resilience, e.g. the CWA 16694 (DIN SPEC 91299:2013-10)

In order to provide the optimal service and results, the R-Tech group has dedicated units for specific area of “advanced risk technologies” such as:

• technology transfer
• education
• R&D
• industrial services (“business-oriented”)
• EU-related issues
