Pratik Khanore

Drawing on firsthand experience across both greenfield and brownfield environments, Pratik unpacks where MES implementations break down during go-live and why. From misaligned workflows and data integrity gaps to underestimated change management and integration friction, we'll examine the early warning signs that signal risk before issues escalate.

More importantly, this session focuses on stabilization: what actually works in the critical first weeks post-launch. Attendees will walk away with practical, vendor-agnostic strategies to mitigate disruption, accelerate user adoption, and build resilience into MES deployments—ensuring systems perform not just in theory, but on the plant floor.
