June Association for Manufacturing Excellent Event Helps Datacraft Solutions to Shine

According to Stephen Parker, CEO of Datacraft Solutions, “Jerry Wright, a long term user of the Datacraft Solutions suite and a regional “mover and shaker” within AME was the conference chair. Datacraft Solutions looks forward to contributing to future AME conferences as speakers, sponsors, exhibitors and attendees.”  Datacraft Solutions participated as a sponsor, exhibitor and attendee in the three day AME (Association for Manufacturing Excellence) San Diego 2008 – Catch the Lean Wave Conference held on June 9-11, 2008. The conference was outstanding across a number of key measures:

•Learning track (stream) design

•Quality of presentations

•Networking opportunities

•Venue & location

•Attendance – over four hundred and seventy-five attendees

Five keynote speakers presented different perspectives of the lean movement—

its challenges, rewards and strategies for success. A key feature of the conference was the numerous plant “learning” tours of companies who are engaged in the “lean journey.”

The next AME conference, titled, “From Good to Great” will be held on October 20 -24 in Toronto Canada.  That show will focus on the fact that manufacturing is at a crossroads in North America.  According to the AME, “Our future lies in taking action and learning how to go from good to great. We need to engage in battle with mediocrity. Thousands of our industry colleagues are excelling in this global marketplace because they’re going beyond the norm. They have learned the secret that disciplined people, thinking disciplined thoughts, taking disciplined action, is the winning combination you need to succeed.”
