These research projects are often conducted with industrialist partners through specific contracts or thesis projects (CIFRE - Conventions Industrielles de Formation par la REcherche). The CIFRE is an agreement where companies are given grants if they supervise a doctoral student during his/her thesis. The following companies actively participate in this collaboration: EADS, ST Microelectronics, ESSILOR, PSA and Air France.

• Evaluation or consulting assignments: from time to time researchers at Génie industriel can play a part in companies via specific evaluation or consulting assignments in their research domain. Two main areas of evaluation include: optimising development and innovation processes & optimising flows in a global supply chain 

• Carrying out projects: Companies can have access to our school's GI-Nova Platform, a new platform for innovation, design & prototyping. Some of the physical prototyping tools include Rapid Prototyping and Machining. Companies can use these facilities to make their prototypes.

• Life long learning and project development: businesses can also use the school's GI-Nova Platform for 'Life Long Learning' and 'Development Projects' within the company.
