Theme: Organizational Excellence in the Digital Age
The technological advances of the past decade have resulted in a new industrial revolution that’s often referred to as the fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0. It is a revolution driven by the exponential growth of disruptive technologies and the changes those technologies are bringing to the workplace, the workforce, and the markets that organizations serve. These changes require organizations of excellence to be more adaptable, more agile, and more innovative than ever before. The new landscape this establishes requires individuals and organizations as a whole to constantly learn new things and challenge past practices and assumptions. ASQ invites you to join the revolution, embrace the disruption, and take the first step in positioning your organization for excellence in the digital age.

Time: Wed, Jul 25, 2018 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM PDT
  Industry 4.0 promises to transform manufacturing with the latest technologies such as IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Looking across the enterprise to leverage the right data helps to identify problems more quickly so manufacturers can better analyze and predict quality and maintenance problems before they occur.
