With new regulations from the FDA’s FSMA coming in 2026, prioritizing #DataManagement is essential in #FoodManufacturing to ensure quality control, efficient operations, and regulatory compliance. In my latest piece in @Food Manufacturing, I explore how data-driven practices can optimize production and enhance #FoodSafety. Check out the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/gdnq2dZW

Now that our Global Summit has concluded, we wanted to take a moment to thank all those who attended, as well as all those who presented and shared their incredible insight into the future of our great industry. With topics ranging from AI in manufacturing to TrakSYS use cases and everything in between, we wanted to share some of our event’s key takeaways: • Specialization in tech helps maintain competitiveness • Data fuels innovation in our industry • Successful technology application integrates people, processes, and data • Don't let cognitive entrenchment stand in the way of innovation • The circular information innovation cycle is accelerating, driving rapid technological advancements The #FutureofManufacturing is bright. To all who attended our Summit and contributed to painting that most vibrant of pictures— Thanks Again, Parsec

The path to modern manufacturing is increasingly defined by #DigitalTransformation and #AI. Leading experts like Paul Saffo, Bill Rokos, Rick Franzosa, and Dr. Mark R. Hatch will soon share their perspectives on the strategies and technologies essential for navigating the environment and driving change. 

The #manufacturing industry is undergoing a transformative shift, driven by advancements in #AI and automation. We're looking forward to hearing from Paul Saffo, Adjunct Professor at Stanford University, who will delve into how these technologies are setting new standards for efficiency and innovation. Paul’s expertise will offer a comprehensive look at the forces shaping the future of manufacturing and their potential impact on the industry!

The #manufacturing landscape is evolving, moving away from traditional methods to embrace automation and IoT. In my latest article with Industry Today Media, I explore how #AI is essential for realizing the full potential of Industry 4.0, driving new levels of efficiency and insight. Integrating AI is not just about technology—it's about aligning your team through thoughtful training and communication to unlock transformative change. Dive deeper into how AI can reshape manufacturing and why a strategic, inclusive approach is crucial. Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gjD7q2RP

Excited to see my first Business Journals Leadership Trust piece go live! #Industry40 has evolved over a decade, emphasizing cyber-physical systems, M2M, and IoT. While recent investments have boosted productivity, many manufacturers still operate in a "3.5" model. The missing link? #AI. Its applications in real-time production scheduling and quality control optimize efficiency and enable strategic focus. The future of #manufacturing is here, and building an AI-savvy workforce is pivotal to unlocking its full potential. Check out the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/gnna5G9R

We are proud to announce that our #MES platform, TrakSYS, has once again been recognized as a winner of the Data Breakthrough Awards, this year as the "Overall Data Technology Innovation of the Year.” These awards celebrate the leading companies, products, and services whose innovation stands out in this era of digital data. We are honored by this recognition, and look forward to continuing to innovate and push the bounds of what is possible when it comes to making the management of manufacturing operations as simple as possible! https://lnkd.in/dpgKtnRQ

Embracing #DigitalTransformation is vital to a manufacturer's success. And yet, according to a recent Parsec survey, over a third of American manufacturers note that they lack a clear strategy when it comes to solution adoption. Fortunately—as I detail in my article for Industry Today—a manufacturing execution system (MES) can help inform digital transformation strategies and serve as a meaningful first, second, or next step. With their ability to facilitate enterprise-wide optimization, dive into the full article to discover if an MES could be right for you! https://lnkd.in/gnNsT_A9

In 2023, the FDA issued 222 food and beverage product recalls, and the USDA issued 89. In my recent article for Food Industry Executive, I take a look at how technologies—like #ManufacturingExecutionSystems— help manufacturers prevent product recalls and rapidly respond to the ones that do occur. Dive into the full piece below and let me know in the comments how your companies currently handle recall remediation.  https://bit.ly/4ajXfSl”

In my latest Forbes article, I explore the temptation to delay #QualityAssurance for cost-cutting in the dynamic manufacturing landscape. Despite growing expenses, the repercussions—from internal remediation costs to external failures impacting reputation and contracts—highlight the essential nature of proactive QA. Incorporating root cause analyses, worker feedback, and modern technologies such as #IIoT devices become pivotal in predicting and preventing issues, transforming QA into a strategic investment rather than a dispensable budget item.
