Control System Integrators Association CEO Jose Rivera discusses manufacturing’s challenges and the opportunities for system integrators
Jose Rivera, CEO of the Control System Integrators Association, talked with partner publication Machine Design, about the challenges and opportunities facing industry, particularly when it comes to aligning technology and workers. System integrators play an important role helping end users navigate smart manufacturing. This is the first part in a three-part series (read part two and part three).
Supply chain woes and labor shortages have plagued manufacturing recently, and in some ways, the challenges are here to stay. For system integrators, it provides opportunities to deliver new projects. It has also forced many to rethink traditional approaches to workforce and design, but the end result in the near-term is growth for manufacturing.
