Joint Industry Projects
Rockfield has a number of streams to constantly further the development and evolution of the software platform Elfen.
This is funded through either internal funding of GUI’s, technical developments or small plugins for data import/export & visualisation purposes, Client specific funding of anything from enhancement to fully customisable front-ends for a bespoke User Experience or through Joint Industry funded projects. Primarily Rockfield channels its JIPs through ITF – Industry Technology Facilitators
