IDIAL – Intel­li­gent Ser­vices Inno­va­ti­ve Agi­le Local

On 15 July 2025, the IDIAL pro­ject – Intel­li­gent Ser­vices Inno­va­ti­ve Agi­le Local – was laun­ched, finan­ced with funds from the Euro­pean Regio­nal Deve­lo­p­ment Fund (ERDF) as part of the ‘Invest­ments in Employ­ment and Growth’ (IBW) objec­ti­ve for the 2021–2027 fun­ding peri­od (pro­ject fun­ding).

IDIAL aims to deve­lop AI ser­vices for know­ledge workers in the skil­led trades that are spe­ci­fi­cal­ly tail­o­red to the needs of smal­ler com­pa­nies. Tog­e­ther with part­ners DFKI and eBZ, eco­no­mic and prac­ti­cal approa­ches are being rese­ar­ched and deve­lo­ped that opti­mi­se work pro­ces­ses in the field of know­ledge work and take into account the spe­ci­fic requi­re­ments of SMEs. The IDIAL solu­ti­on stra­tegy focu­ses on the ear­ly inte­gra­ti­on of ergo­no­mic and tech­no­lo­gi­cal deve­lo­p­ment based on the spe­ci­fic tasks of infor­ma­ti­on and know­ledge workers. On the one hand, the pro­ject deli­vers imme­dia­te­ly usable results for com­pa­nies in the sta­te and is inten­ded to con­tri­bu­te to tech­no­lo­gy-ori­en­ted com­pe­tence buil­ding in Rhi­ne­land-Pala­ti­na­te.
