SOUTHWEST Session: Manufacturers are rethinking how they sell — and configuration has quietly become the hottest lever for growth. In an era where 86% of manufacturers say they’ve lost deals due to slow, manual quoting, the ability to configure products quickly and accurately isn’t just an operational advantage — it’s a sales accelerator. This session explores how leading manufacturers are modernizing their quoting and selling processes with connected CPQ and AI-driven tools that integrate seamlessly with their ERP systems — without replacing them. You’ll see how “Built to Sell” insights are reshaping sales strategies across industries, helping teams quote faster, sell smarter, and scale revenue without adding complexity.

SOUTHWEST Session: Driven by the rise of Edge AI, industrial machine health monitoring is undergoing a transformative shift—enabling smarter, faster, and more autonomous decision-making at the edge. In this session, we’ll explore how edge computing and artificial intelligence are converging to deliver real-time insights directly at the source of data generation, minimizing latency and enhancing responsiveness. We'll examine traditional Condition-based Monitoring (CbM) methods and their limitations in dynamic industrial environments, then dive into how predictive and prescriptive maintenance strategies—utilizing Edge AI—are anticipating failures, optimizing performance, and reducing costly downtime. This evolution is reshaping the future of industrial reliability, operational efficiency, and long-term asset sustainability.

SOUTHWEST Session: Join us for a town hall event designed for exhibitors and attendees to help shape the future of federal research and development in advanced manufacturing. SPECIAL REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED: Register Here Participants will share insights to help define the priorities for the 2026 – 2030 National Strategic Plan for Advanced Manufacturing, which guides Federal efforts to enhance the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing. The plan is revised every four years to provide new federal priorities in advanced manufacturing research and development, aiming to create jobs, boost economic growth across various sectors, and strengthen national security. This town hall session augments an online Request for Information (RFI), enabling participants to voice their views and catalyze deeper input into priority areas. The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy has posted the complete set of questions in the Federal Register. The National Science and Technology Council’s Subcommittee on Advanced Manufacturing will manage the RFI process, and the NIST Office of Advanced Manufacturing will collect and analyze the information.
