Jake Hall, also known as The Manufacturing Millennial, interviewed CESMII CEO, John Dyck, along with four leaders from our newest CESMII Smart Manufacturing Innovation Centers (SMICs) about what’s next in workforce development and how the democratization of Smart Manufacturing will support manufacturers on their journey. Jake Hall, The Manufacturing Millennial & John Dyck, CEO, CESMII Jake Hall and […]
Deep Dive CESMII. Ken Forster speaks with John Dyck, CEO of the Clean Energy Smart Manufacturing Innovation Institute or CESMII, a public-private partnership committed to transforming the US manufacturing market and increasing global competitiveness through the application of smart manufacturing technologies and workforce development both in manufacturing operations and in the supply chain. John is known globally as a domain expert on technology and business management in the Nexus, which often separates it from operations. For the past ten years, he has been at the vanguard of how innovations like Cloud and the Industrial Internet of Things impact manufacturing, pioneering the application of these technologies, including several patents in a wide range of manufacturing industries and supply chains and companies such as GE and Rockwell. The Society of Manufacturing and Engineering recognized John in 2020 as one of the 30 leaders transforming manufacturing in the USA. John is the immediate-past chairman of MESA International's (Manufacturing Enterprise Solutions Association) Board of Directors. He holds a degree in Electronics Engineering from Conestoga College.
The pandemic has, and continues to have, a dramatic impact on our lives and our businesses. To help you navigate this new world, the 2022 CSIA Executive Conference will take a deep dive into “The Future of Work.” From keynote presentations to panel discussions to one-on-one networking, you’ll discover how thought leaders, industry experts and, […]
In this conversation, we talked about democratizing smart manufacturing, the history and ambition of CESMII (2016-), bridging the skills gap in small and medium enterprises which constitute 98% of manufacturing. We discuss how the integration of advanced sensors, data, platforms and controls to radically impact manufacturing performance. We then have the hard discussion of why the US is (arguably) a laggard? John shares the 7 characteristics of future-proofing (interoperability, openness, sustainability, security, etc.). We hear about two coming initiatives: Smart Manufacturing Executive Council & Smart Manufacturing Innovation Platform. We then turn to the future outlook over the next decade.
This Affinity Group will concentrate on systems and electronic assemblies’ standards across multiple Aerospace/Defense platforms and utilization of SM to accelerate energy efficiencies, productivities and reduce waste throughout the manufacturing stream. These efforts will be critical elements of SM technologies such as smart sensors, data analytics, machine learning, connectivity, cybersecurity, digital engineering, in-process digital monitoring, and process control.
As the United States embarks on a path towards net-zero carbon emissions, understanding how to decarbonize the industrial sector will be critical. The 2021 National Academies' report Accelerating Decarbonization of […]
