Comment:

FALCON will contribute to the transition towards new generations of products allowing a stage of contemporary production of new and old products. In this area, the provision of customisable product-services will allow "old" products to be extended with "new" services, enabling a contemporary production as described above. On the basis of product-usage information feedback, "old" products can be evolved throughout their lifecycles to incorporate changing customer requirements without the need for ramping up new product production facilities.
