Interoperability in Action: The System Integrator’s Role in Standardized Manufacturing ‎Architectures

Speaker: John Dyck, CEO, CESMII

This presentation highlights the strategic role of the Control System Integrator Association ‎community in accelerating adoption of modern manufacturing architectures grounded in ‎standardized information models and Namespace principles. The session ‎will outline how integrators can lead the shift toward data-centric manufacturing ‎ecosystems, reduce integration complexity, and create the technical foundation required ‎for analytics and AI at scale. It will also explore how CESMII – The Smart Manufacturing ‎Institute is working to educate this community on information model and Namespace foundations.‎
