Implementing the right technologies at the right time and applying them to the right processes in your manufacturing facility will make you more competitive in the marketplace. Yet how do you identify what technologies make sense for your business and how do you know if they will ultimately be a time-suck, or a value-add? In this session the speaker will discuss how small- and medium-sized manufacturers can implement simple technologies to achieve superior product quality, improve process efficiency, and increase productivity. He will discuss the enhancements technology can make to workforce retention and training, the value of the cloud, and much more.
