SOUTHEAST Session: Every manufacturing leader wants better results—higher productivity, stronger margins, improved retention. But results don’t just happen. They are outcomes, driven by a chain of causes. If you want to change what your organization is producing, you must first understand—and influence—what’s producing it. In manufacturing, we obsess over KPIs, processes, and performance data. But what if the real leverage point lies deeper? Behind every action is a decision. Behind every decision is a belief. And behind every belief is a mindset. This session takes you beneath the surface of your organization’s performance to uncover the unseen drivers of success: the thinking patterns and belief systems shaping behavior on your shop floor, in your offices, and across your leadership team. Because here's the truth: your organization will never rise above the mindset of its people. If you’re ready to stop reacting to problems and start redesigning outcomes, this session is your roadmap. Learn how to shift beliefs, align behaviors, and build a culture that fuels measurable, sustainable transformation—starting with the end in mind.

SOUTHEAST Session: Manufacturers performing visual inspections on their products have historically had two options: perform the inspection manually, or program a rule-based vision system. Both of these options are slow, inflexible, and costly to maintain. However, as Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) have become more powerful, a third approach has become available: deep learning. Deep learning-based vision systems learn directly from annotated images to perform inference on images. They offer numerous advantages including rapid deployment, greater detection flexibility, and lower development and acquisition costs. They are also easily retrained and reconfigured with minimal to no programming.  As such, they represent a massive opportunity to automate quality inspection for small to medium sized manufacturers. In this presentation, we will discuss the technology that enables AI-based computer vision, the advantages they provide, use cases, and how to best implement them. Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of where deep learning fits into their operation and how to get started with the right tools and strategy.

SOUTHEAST Session: Manufacturers face a dual challenge: reducing unplanned downtime while also addressing rising energy costs and sustainability targets. Traditional Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) has focused on asset reliability and uptime, but it often overlooks the significant energy wasted when machines operate in a fault state, up to 20% more electricity. This presentation introduces Energy-Centered Maintenance (ECM) , a next-generation approach that combines predictive maintenance with energy efficiency. By monitoring key parameters of rotating equipment, ECM helps manufacturers detect early signs of inefficiency, prevent failures, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Attendees will see real-world case studies, including how a pharmaceutical manufacturer deployed over 140 sensors across global facilities to save 136 hours of downtime and $42,000 in excess energy usage. The session will demonstrate how ECM strategies deliver measurable ROI, improve operational excellence, and align maintenance practices with corporate sustainability goals

SOUTHEAST Session: Are you confident that your machine monitoring solution can scale with your evolving data needs? Many manufacturers adopt IIoT solutions only to realize too late that rigid connectivity architectures limit their future growth. As manufacturing technology advances and data-driven decision-making becomes essential, off-the-shelf monitoring solutions and short-term fixes may seem convenient but often create long-term limitations. Manufacturers need a scalable, secure, and interoperable connectivity framework to maximize IIoT investments and ensure seamless data flow across their operations. At Juxtum, we help manufacturers bridge the gap between machine connectivity and actionable intelligence. In this webinar, Juxtum’s IIoT experts will uncover the most common mistakes companies make when selecting a machine monitoring platform and provide a roadmap to choosing a future-ready solution that delivers ROI while supporting long-term digital transformation.

SOUTHEAST Session: This presentation showcases the successful migration of Prym Consumer USA from a local SAP ERP to the Prym Group’s global SAP platform, a transformation that redefined core manufacturing and supply chain operations. Completed in just eight months, the project modernized order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, finance, warehouse management, and returns processes while aligning with Prym’s fiscal year change. To address manufacturing challenges, advanced automation solutions, including Pick by Light and a Loose Item picking sorter were implemented to boost accuracy and efficiency in logistics. Seamless EDI integration via Seeburger connected Prym with leading U.S. retailers such as Walmart and Amazon, while Shopify integration expanded direct-to-consumer sales. Delivered on time, under budget, and with minimal disruption, this case study offers a clear roadmap for manufacturers seeking to harmonize global processes, adopt automation, and strengthen supply chain resilience in today’s competitive landscape.

SOUTHEAST Session: Job shops, mid-size machine shops, and contract manufacturers power much of the world’s production, yet they face persistent constraints: skilled labor shortages, rising complexity, and pressure to deliver faster at lower cost. While AI adoption has taken root in large enterprises, the greatest untapped potential lies with small and mid-sized manufacturers. This session will cover how practical AI solutions can compress programming time, improve productivity and reskill existing and onboard new employees and attract a new generation of talent.
