Webcast description
Manufacturers are accelerating investments in AI and automation, yet many initiatives struggle to deliver consistent, enterprise-level results. This 1-hour CPE webcast will examine how AI-enabled operations and connected technologies are being applied across the manufacturing value chain—from design and sourcing to production, quality, and service—to address priority challenges such as worker safety, inventory performance, quality, operational visibility, and margin leakage.
Our panel of Grant Thornton and NTT DATA professionals will discuss how organizations can move beyond isolated pilots by aligning technology, data, governance, and workforce adoption. Attendees will leave with a practical understanding of how to prioritize high-impact use cases, scale AI across the enterprise, and translate operational improvements into measurable financial and strategic value.
