Vote for The Future of Work

Today, imagine 10 years from now. 
Last time I posted in this blog was right after I got my hands on one of the first iPad's coming off the UPS truck.  I felt it was worth writing about back then because it seemed like the tablet was going to dramatically change the way we use computers.  Since that day I have been working tirelessly with Wendy Wloszek and the rest of the team at Industrial Mold & Machine in an effort to leverage tablets as a tool for manufacturing organizations.  The result has been an information system unlike any other, a shop floor with portable, real time information.  This innovation effort has been an incredible learning experience.  I have worked along side some very talented and hard working people who have continued to put out a quality product while constantly adapting to our growing digital environment.   I have always had a positive outlook on the future of manufacturing and after watching the shop floor at Industrial Mold absorb new technology and begin to utilize rich digital information, I am more optimistic than ever.

Our efforts have not gone unnoticed, we've done articles and webinars with the help of people who believe that what we are doing here at Industrial Mold is a glimpse of what is to come.   Most recently we have been named as a semifinalist in the Future of Work category of the 2012 Constellation Research Supernova Awards.  Constellation Research is a specialty research firm that is dedicated to helping businesses find value in emerging and disruptive technologies.  I am very excited about being a part of what they are doing at Constellation and look forward to pushing the limits of what information systems can do for manufacturing.  Please help support our efforts by voting for Industrial Mold under The Future of Work category at the link below:
