WIPtracker Overview (August 31, 2025): (8 minutes)
WIPtracker is an affordable, plug-and-play operations tracking and management solution designed for make-to-order manufacturers and industrial distributors
who struggle with late shipments, paper forms, endless spreadsheets, and too many coordination meetings.
It combines real-time work-in-process tracking, warehouse management, manufacturing execution, and end-to-end materials traceability
- helping ensure compliance with FDA, DOT, and DOD requirements.
Delivered pre-loaded on a ruggedized industrial computer, WIPtracker is easy to set up, works securely over your local network,
and integrates with ERP, CRM, and accounting systems.
By replacing manual data collection with barcode scanning and intelligent automation, WIPtracker not only prevents costly error
s but also eliminates much of the "intelligent grunt work" managers and staff face every day - saving labor, reducing expediting,
and making sure customer orders get shipped on time |
Smart Operations Management System Overview (August 22, 2025): (11 minutes)
This video provides an in-depth overview of Smart Operations Management Systems (SOM), the next evolution beyond traditional ERP systems
in manufacturing and industrial distribution. While ERP systems still rely heavily on manual processes, paper forms,
and duplicate data entry, SmartOps systems leverage intelligent agent technology to automate routine decision-making
and eliminate "intelligent grunt work." We explore the background of U.S. manufacturing, the growing demands on front-office staff,
and how intelligent agents streamline operations across plants, warehouses, and centralized management.
With real-world examples like SmartOps24x7 and WIPtracker integration, this video shows how these systems deliver real-time data, reduce labor costs,
prevent errors, and boost efficiency, enabling manufacturers to stay competitive in today's global economy |
Myth: Reshoring Manufacturing to the USA (April 5, 2025): (12 minutes)
In this video, Dr. Peter Green, an expert with over 30 years of experience helping mid-sized U.S. manufacturers, debunks the myth that American manufacturing has vanished. With over 60,000 active plants still operating nationwide, he explains how U.S. manufacturing evolved from mass production to agile, make-to-order operations in response to global pressures like the WTO and Chinese competition. Dr. Green explores how automation, smart operations technology, and AI have reshaped shop floors and front offices, enabling competitive reshoring of production, even as manufacturing jobs continue to decline globally. He dives into the three real barriers to reshoring, unfair Chinese trade practices, burdensome U.S. regulations, and a lack of skilled workers, and addresses the controversial role of IQ in workforce planning. With candid insights and bold critiques, he outlines how America can expand its $3 trillion manufacturing output, if we focus on technology, not bureaucracy. |
