SOUTHEAST Session: Unexpected breakdowns, rising costs, and limited asset visibility continue to be a challenge for manufacturers, especially as teams face mounting pressure to do more with less – fewer technicians, tighter budgets, and limited time. But with the right technology and a practical approach to reliability, lean teams can shift from fighting fires to building long-term, operational resilience into every layer of production. In this session, we’ll showcase how manufacturers are using modern CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System) tools to drive higher uptime, extend asset life, and reduce reactive work – all without needing additional headcount or new equipment. We’ll demonstrate how top performing teams have digitized preventive maintenance schedules, deployed QR code-enabled work orders, and built mobile-first maintenance workflows that keep machines running and teams aligned. Whether you’re still using spreadsheets or looking to get more out of your current system, this session will provide a clear blueprint for building a smart, scalable maintenance program.
SOUTHEAST Session: Supply chains and manufacturing networks are experiencing profound change. Increasing globalization has made them more complex and harder to control, while rising cost pressures demand greater efficiency and waste reduction. At the same time, companies are under mounting pressure to meet sustainability goals and prove transparency in how assets are used and managed. The rapid adoption of digital transformation and Industry 4.0 technologies has created enormous potential, yet many organizations still struggle to connect their physical assets with meaningful, actionable data. This presentation will educate attendees and provide insights into how Sensolus asset tracking solution helps organizations overcome complexity, strengthen resilience, and achieve operational excellence, bringing clarity and intelligence to modern supply chains.

SOUTHEAST Session: Many small and medium-sized manufacturers feel overwhelmed by the hype around artificial intelligence, yet struggle to see where to begin without significant disruption or cost. This talk will present a practical, proven framework that helps owners, operators, and engineering managers adopt AI in a step-by-step approach. Real case studies will be shared, including a demand planning implementation that reduced costs and enhanced decision-making without requiring significant capital investments. Attendees will gain a clear roadmap to identify high-impact opportunities, pilot small projects, and scale AI solutions that deliver measurable ROI and strengthen long-term competitiveness. This session provides actionable strategies and dispels common myths, demonstrating that digital transformation does not have to be complex or out of reach for smaller manufacturers ready to take the first step.
