Biography
Phil graduated from the University of Warwick in 2019, where he pursued his PhD. During his PhD, Phil was sponsored by BAE Systems Land (now RBSL) through the EPSRC iCase award. Phils thesis focussed on understanding the use of additive manufacturing within spares and repairs supply chains. Key themes throughout his PhD were modular design, lead time reducation and adaptability.
Phil has published papers in numerous international journals including the International Journal of Operations and Production Management, the International Journal of Production Economics and Technovation.
Phil has received numerous grants from the EPSRC, working on interdisciplinary projects related to cyber security in additive manufacturing supply chains, digitally enhanced advanced services for transporation services (rail), and supply chain management for advanced services.
