Last month Polytron attended the MESA North American Conference which was held in Orlando, FL. In case you are not familiar with MESA (Manufacturing Enterprise Solutions Association), it is a “global community of manufacturers, producers, industry leaders and solution providers who are focused on improving Operations Management capabilities through the effective application of technology solutions and best practices”.
The conference provides a great venue to connect with and collaborate with industry leaders who are finding ways to meet today’s manufacturing challenges by better leveraging technology. Conference presentations included updates of MESA’s various working groups focused on documenting industry best practices, customer success stories and latest technology applications.
Below are links to a few of the presentations that I found interesting:
