Digitalization in manufacturing has profoundly transformed hiring, training, and the skill sets required in the workplace, together with reshaping organizational structures. This shift necessitates a workforce capable of adapting to new technologies and processes. Consequently, training programs have evolved, focusing more on digital skills and continuous learning to keep pace with technological advancements. Traditional roles have expanded to include digital competencies, leading to a demand for workers who are not only mechanically skilled but also capable of navigating and optimizing digital tools and platforms. Join this workshop to discuss: 

• What the skill-sets and roles needed for project implementation are 
• What the options for structuring ongoing embedded organizations are 
• How companies influence and adjust to the changing academic landscape and new generational expectations 
• Where and how to hire digital-ready talent 
• How companies can adapt their internal training practices to meet rapidly changing needs 

IoT devices have transformed the live tracking of equipment performance. They can continuously collect and transmit data on equipment performance and predict potential issues in advance. Efficient maintenance management through digitalization can also ensure peak operational performance and extend machine life.  Join this panel to discuss: 

• Transitioning from a reactive to a predictive and preventive maintenance environment 
• Collecting and analyzing data from your assets with sensors, cloud & AI 
• Preventing failures with machine learning and analytics 
• Visualizing your asset’s condition and performance with dashboards, reports & alerts
