AI for Manufacturing Leaders
2026-10-25 08:00 - 16:30 | MANTEC – Knowledge Park, 427 Kings Mill Road, York, PA, 17401, United States
AI is Already in Your Organization. The Question Is: Are You Controlling It? Solve the challenge of unmanaged AI and turn it into a controlled competitive advantage.
The Challenge
AI isn’t a future problem; it’s a current reality. Your engineers are experimenting. Your teams are using tools independently. Critical knowledge is walking out the door with retiring experts. The challenge isn’t adoption. The challenge is control. Without structure, AI creates risk:

Compliance exposure
Inconsistent outputs
Loss of institutional knowledge
Disconnected efforts across teams

The Solution
AI for Manufacturing Leaders: From Experimentation to Controlled Advantage
This 4-hour, hands-on course helps you move from scattered experimentation to a structured, scalable approach using the F.O.R.G.E.™ framework. You won’t just learn about AI; you’ll apply it to your real operational challenges.
What You’ll Walk Away With

A draft AI policy tailored to your organization
A defined use case tied to real operational value
A 90-day implementation plan
Access to a secure AI sandbox environment for 60 days

How You’ll Solve the Challenge
Using the F.O.R.G.E.™ framework:

Find the Shadow — Identify unmanaged AI already happening
Own the Guardrails — Establish governance and data boundaries
Remove the Friction — Apply AI to non-value-added work
Gather the Judgment — Capture knowledge before it retires
Expand the Advantage — Scale what works across your organization

What You’ll Learn

How to identify and control shadow AI
How to deploy AI without disrupting compliance or quality systems
Where AI delivers immediate operational value
The difference between chat, agents, and workflows and when to use each
How to build a reliable, auditable knowledge base
How to use AI as augmented intelligence, not replacement

Who Should Attend

Manufacturing leaders
Operations leaders and plant managers
Business owners and executives
Quality managers
