Overview
Prior to joining Research and Innovation Services as a Research Development Officer Anthony was a member of the ASTUTE project team based at Cardiff Business School working in the areas of logistics and supply chain operations and management, supply chain resilience, process modelling, remanufacturing and recycling, servitisation, and operational excellence. Collaborating with companies in the aerospace and defence, automotive, bio-medical, food and beverages, and materials sectors.
Before that he was based in the School of Engineering working on industrially focused research projects in the areas of advanced sustainable manufacturing, smart systems, and manufacturing systems engineering. These projects involved working with companies, in a variety of manufacturing sectors, including Ford, Schneider Electric, Fiat, HP, and Daimler.
He has worked on projects funded by UKRI (EPSRC, ESRC and AHRC), European Union, European Regional Development Fund and the Welsh Government.
