Keynote and Panel Description:

The New Fabric of Demand: Modernizing Collaboration and Transparency for Real-Time Production

In todayโ€™s digitally driven, agentically automated industrial landscape, the traditional walls between internal production and external supply chains are becoming a liability. To achieve true on-demand manufacturing without compromising quality, safety or compliance, leaders must modernize how they collaborate, particularly with external partners.

This keynote session explores cutting-edge advancements in collaboration through the intersection of production operations, supply chain, digital innovation, and cybersecurity. We will examine how forward-thinking companies like Rolls-Royce Holdings are creating new โ€œdemand architectureโ€ for manufacturers such as BTX Precision. This demand is breaking down data silos to create seamless, secure, and compliant production ecosystems that provide new means of competitive advantage. As a lens of the drivers of change through their partnership with the Department of Defense, MxD will discuss how this innovative collaboration and data transparency are quickly becoming an industrial imperative.

The discussion will move beyond theory to practical application, highlighting the role of people and the technologies they use. The panelist will share how innovative working groups, Industrial Data Fabrics, and Agentic AI are enabling real-time data sharing and communication necessary to support on-demand, cost-competitive manufacturing.

Attendees will learn:

ยท Strategies for De-siloing: How to extract, contextualize, and share mission-critical data without exposing intellectual property or increasing cyber risk.

ยท Operational Agility: Methods to link supply chain dynamics directly to production operations for improved speed, safety, and cost-efficiency.

ยท The Future of Partnership: How to navigate the cultural and technical shifts required to collaborate with external partners as true extensions of your enterprise.
