The Pub Talk begins at 6:00 p.m.
A
large portion of the enterprise has largely been void of automation
to date. It is one of the most critical elements of the enterprise
food chain and the element that also deals with the most critical
of processes. . . . change of ownership of goods and services. While
much effort and resources have gone into automating inside the walls
of the enterprise, the fringes of supply chains or service chains
processes are still being executed on Clipboards. There is an emerging
recognized need for automation in the form of "Practical Mobility"
industrial solutions. Dean L. Frew of Incucomm Consulting will share
with the Pub attendees Incucomm's perspective to "Practical
Mobility."
