Day Two – June 26, 2024

9:25 AM KEYNOTE How Sustainability Drives Manufacturing Efficiency, Productivity, and Workforce Collaboration and Engagement

One of the keys to plant optimization is the standardization of factory operations and developing a unified culture. Standardization acts as a powerful catalyst, easing the deployment and integration of technology while aligning with strategic business objectives across the factory portfolio.

Learn how factory optimization can:

  • Align with broader business objectives, ensuring harmonious integration of technology that meets organizational goals.
  • Enhance operational efficiency, streamlining processes and creating a foundation for the seamless deployment of technological solutions throughout the manufacturing plant.
  • Enable deployment of new technologies and discover how a standardized approach to operations and culture addresses these challenges, ensuring smoother integration.
  • Culturally align with technology adoption, fostering a mindset of adaptability and innovation that accelerates the acceptance and utilization of advanced manufacturing technologies.

We’ll also explore the role of standardized data across factory operations, enabling consistent and reliable information flow that forms the backbone of data-driven decision-making. This keynote address will illuminate the path to seamless technology deployment, cultural integration, and the achievement of strategic business objectives.
