Driving Manufacturing Growth and Job Creation in Central Pennsylvania
“The manufacturers who will succeed are not the ones who work harder, but the ones whose frontlines can learn faster and work smarter.”

These data-driven decisions are enabling organizations to transform everything from their products to their processes and production models. But there’s still an enormous opportunity that remains largely untapped: their people.
