MESA Smart Manufacturing Community: Smart Connected Factory

MESA Smart Manufacturing Community: Smart Connected Factory

Wednesday, February 18, 2026 (11:00 AM - 12:00 PM) (EST)

Description

Come share your experiences, stories, questions, and what you have learned in a safe, non-commercial environment. We seek to understand the state-of-the market, understand what companies have done that has or has not worked, documenting questions that MESA and the community can help answer. Overall, the goal is to accelerate each participant’s learning and progress toward Smart Manufacturing. 

Topic: MES/MOM Evolution & Next Gen Arch

The advent of AI and the continued advancement of IoT, 5G and other technologies presents opportunities for new approaches to MES/MOM and shop floor control. But, what's the reality? In this discussion, which will be supported by Yan Lu from NIST, we will explore questions such as:

  1. How is MES evolving? What's emerging in the market today?
  2. How does MES need to evolve?
  3. What is needed from a standards perspective for future MES?
  4. What's emerging with regards to architecture from industry organizations?
