Discussing the practice of smart manufacturing and integrated operations and information technology (OT/IT) systems. Smart Manufacturing (SM) is the technology practice of applying advanced sensors, controls, platforms and modeling not only as advanced technologies but as OT/IT systems. SM Technology practice is aligned with the opportunity/business oriented practice of end-to-end use of real-time, networked, data based intelligence for enterprise integration of dynamic market demands, high precision/qualified products, and enterprise and ecosystem optimization. Business and technology practice also combine to accelerate transformational use of data, extensive application of enterprise manufacturing intelligence, provider and practitioner market changes and adoption of advanced technologies to radically improve the precision, performance and efficiency of U.S. manufacturing. Increased economic, energy, and material productivity, zero incidents, reduced industry energy usage, and environmental sustainability all become competitive advantages. The Clean Energy Smart Manufacturing Innovation Institute (CESMII) is the 9th U.S. institute under the White House-led "Manufacturing USA” initiative.
