CESMII: Smart Manufacturing to Revitalize U.S. Manufacturing

By enabling the frictionless movement of information between real-time operations and the people and systems that create value in and across manufacturing organizations, CESMII is making sure the power of information and innovation is at the fingertips of everyone who touches manufacturing.

CESMII is entrusted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Manufacturing Office and trusted by the industry to lead our nation’s efforts to democratize Smart Manufacturing knowledge, technologies and innovation, and revitalize U.S. Manufacturing.

CESMII is democratizing Smart Manufacturing, engaging the entire manufacturing ecosystem to drive every U.S. manufacturer’s short and long-term competitiveness.

Democratizing Smart Manufacturing Knowledge – Cultural transformation requires the sustained support of executive leadership, a clear vision for the future and education & workforce.

Democratizing Smart Manufacturing Technologies – Building a defacto standard real-time data ingestion and contextualization foundation enables every SM vendor or SI to deliver value in a fraction of the time.

Democratizing Smart Manufacturing Innovation learning infrastructure – An innovative, vendor-neutral environment allows ALL SM stakeholders to participate and learn. The SM Marketplace will encourage the creation and sharing of IP, SM capabilities & domain expertise.

CESMII’s charter is audacious and serves as a call-to-action for the entire U.S. manufacturing ecosystem. No single company or organization can address the cost, complexity and cultural challenges on its own. Delivering Smart Manufacturing’s impact at scale will demand a higher level of collaboration and partnering than ever before.

CESMII brings together the best and brightest minds from across industry – manufacturers, systems integrators, technology solution providers, equipment builders and academia – all working together to do what none can do on their own: revitalize U.S. manufacturing through Smart Manufacturing.

Smart Manufacturing (Industries 4.0, the Industrial Internet of Things and Digital/Industrial Transformation) has been positioned as a multi-trillion-dollar value creator for this ecosystem. In their rush to capitalize on this, most vendors and system integrators don’t realize that the challenges and complexities of the past 25 years haven’t disappeared, even with the advent of new technology.

We will not achieve the promised multi-trillion-dollar value creation unless we address the fundamental roadblocks of our past and collaborate on a new Smart Manufacturing foundation.

CESMII is investing in the core technologies and intelligence that will enable the entire SM ecosystem to accelerate how they deliver value and thus transform U.S. manufacturing.
