Background
Dr Fan is currently on the Education and Scholarship pathway.
He was born and studied in Hong Kong, and graduated with First Class Honours in Industrial Engineering. He completed his graduate engineer training at Qualidux Industrial Co Ltd in Hong Kong. He was awarded the Commonwealth Scholarship and completed his PhD in Computer Integrated Manufacturing in Cranfield. After returning to Hong Kong, he worked as CADCAM Manager at Qualidux Industrial Co Ltd, responsible for introducing CAD, CAM, and CNC in plastic injection design and engineering.
In 1990, Fan started to work in The CIM Institute, endowed by IBM in Cranfield, to carry out research, education, and consultancy in new applications of computers in manufacturing. He led many European and UK-funded research programmes to create new tools and methods in knowledge-based engineering design, business performance, quality management, supply chain, and complexity science.
He has a passion for understanding the underlying reasons and developing better approaches to help organisations work more effectively. He looks at the world with a socio-technical lens to explore the complex interactions between people systems and technology systems. The knowledge span includes system engineering, business process analysis, quality and performance management system, organisation design and behaviour, technology-induced change, human psychology and motivation. The application domains include aerospace, engineering, manufacturing, business services, IT, education, health, and local government.
The complex dynamics of people factor in technology implementation prompted him to create a European research consortium for the Framework 5 research project BEST - Better Enterprise System Implementation. The 12 partners, ~4 million project created a body of knowledge that feeds into teaching curriculum and consultancy.
Fan is the Course Director of the MSc in Aviation Digital Technology Management.

Current activities
Dr Ip-Shing Fan is leading the Digital MRO and Hangar laboratories in the Cranfield DARTeC Initiative.
The complex is a realistic representation of the airport ramp and hangar environment to study the interactions between aircraft, engineers, airport and hangar facilities, ground vehicles and drones.
The digital infrastructure supports aircraft digital twin work to maintain the accurate configuration in the information world of airworthiness, as the engineering health status of the aircraft structure and systems to predict and prevent failures.
A number of consortia are being established to work in Paperless Aviation, Aircraft Inspection, Robotic Maintenance and Predictive Health Management.
Fan is the Course Director of the MSc in Aviation Digital Technology Management. He leads the MSc modules in Aviation Digitalisation, Digital Aviation Operations and Maintenance Management, Digital Aviation Supply Chain Management, Enterprise Systems, Business Process Analysis and Engineering, and Project and Programme Management.
Fan is the Chairman of the BCS Beds Bucks Northants Branch.
Clients
He works with a wide range of engineering, IT and non-business organisations, including:
The Boeing Company
BAE Systems
Marshall Aerospace
Airbus
Rolls-Royce
SAP
Fan is experienced in forming industrial companies into consortia and winning public funding.
