It’s no surprise many initiatives stall before any digital ROI appears. \nCESMII’s CEO John Dyck will be participating with Sarah Wiseman who will share a proven\, hands-on framework that cut through the noise for her company. Where they captured an extra 5 % machine uptime—equivalent to nearly a week of added production capacity every quarter. \nThe secret? Start with a single pain-point KPI\, wire low-cost sensors for immediate visibility\, and run focused 90-day pilots on a cloud-ready “data spine.” \nWe’ll explore how leading sites layer just-in-time upskilling\, strong cyber-hygiene\, and neutral ecosystems such as CESMII and MxD to scale gains into higher OEE\, predictive maintenance\, and sharper workforce efficiency. \nYou’ll leave with concrete\, right-sized steps to build digital momentum—whether you run a small facility or a multi-site enterprise navigating the waves of Industry 4.0. \nSpeaker: Sarah Wiseman\, Business Systems Analyst for Manufacturing Execution and Operations Tech Systems at Steel Warehouse. \nSarah Wiseman – Chicago\, Illinois\, United States | Professional Profile | LinkedIn URL:https://www.cesmii.org/event/automation-fair-the-premier-industrial-automation-event/ LOCATION:McCormick Place Convention Center\, 2301 S Martin Luther King Dr\, Chicago\, IL\, 60616\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.cesmii.org/wp-content/uploads/img-6674.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20221117 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20221118 DTSTAMP:20260507T203512 CREATED:20221129T144548Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221129T150552Z UID:10000284-1668643200-1668729599@www.cesmii.org SUMMARY:The TechEd Podcast: Role of the CESMII Ecosystem in Smart Manufacturing Education DESCRIPTION:Watch Now\n \n \n \n \n \n In this TechEd podcast\, Conrad Leiva\, VP Ecosystem and Workforce Education at CESMII\, discusses how the CESMII ecosystem of partners is collaborating to equip educators with more hands-on Smart Manufacturing education resources that reflect the technologies and techniques manufacturers are using today. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Guest\n \n \n \n \n \n Conrad Leiva\, VP of Ecosystem & Workforce Development\, CESMII  URL:https://www.cesmii.org/event/the-teched-podcast-conrad-leiva/ CATEGORIES:Podcast ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.cesmii.org/wp-content/uploads/TheTechEdPodcast_Conrad-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20221116 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20221118 DTSTAMP:20260507T203512 CREATED:20220902T003105Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220902T100031Z UID:10000219-1668556800-1668729599@www.cesmii.org SUMMARY:Automation Fair DESCRIPTION:The Automation Fair® event offers an immersive experience showcasing the power and value of connecting your enterprise end-to-end to deliver data-fueled insights.
