CWMH Summit Day One

8:15 AM Opening Keynote Panel: Building the Interoperable Manufacturing Enterprise: Connected Workers and Connected Systems

Manufacturers have invested billions connecting machines, systems, applications – and workers. Yet much of the information required to make better decisions remains fragmented across proprietary platforms, applications, and organizational silos. The result is an enormous "integration tax": excessive cost and complexity, slow innovation, solutions that do not scale across plants, and operational data that remains extraordinarily difficult to contextualize and put to work – by people or AI.

In this opening keynote panel, John Dyck, Chief Executive Officer of CESMII – The Smart Manufacturing Institute, and manufacturing leaders will challenge the industry to move beyond simply connecting more things toward creating a genuinely interoperable manufacturing environment.

Make interoperability an enterprise business requirement, reducing the cost and complexity of integration while eliminating dependence on proprietary data silos
Create an AI-ready operational foundation where trusted manufacturing context and knowledge are available to both workers and AI agents
Move from connected data to contextualized, interoperable information that can be understood and used across machines, systems, applications, people, and AI
Enable "Governed Freedom" – standardizing the architectural foundation while giving plants and frontline teams greater freedom to innovate
Turn plant innovation into enterprise capability, allowing successful solutions to be reused and scaled across lines, plants, and the manufacturing network
