WEST Session: As manufacturers face new requirements to safeguard Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) under CMMC 2.0, many see compliance as a costly obligation. Yet, when implemented as intended, these same controls create a foundation for operational excellence—connecting machines and data securely, automating oversight, and strengthening resilience. From CUI to ROI reveals how aligning cybersecurity, compliance, and smart manufacturing turns regulatory readiness into measurable business performance and long-term return on investment.

WEST Session: AI promises to transform manufacturing and service operations, but for most teams the challenge is not algorithms—it’s integration and adoption. This session will be co-presented by industry experts who will share real-world lessons from deploying AI-powered workflows at an e-recycling facility and in design-for-manufacture (DfM) and quoting. Attendees will learn a practical framework for deciding when to use deterministic software workflows, when to embed AI as an enabler, and when—if ever—to rely on autonomous AI “agents.” Using concrete metrics, we’ll show how hybrid approaches reduce cost, latency, and risk while delivering measurable gains. We will also describe the importance of human feedback in improving accuracy metrics. This is an inside look at what’s working (and what isn’t) as we automate inspections, quoting, and compliance tasks across the physical and digital sides of manufacturing. You’ll leave with a decision surface you can apply immediately to your own operations.
