I hope you are finding your time at Modex 2014 to be productive and enjoyable. I would like to take a few moments to introduce you to the sponsor of this event—MHI. Since 1945, MHI has been the leading association in the United States representing the Industry that produces material handing and logistics solutions—the Industry that Make Supply Chains Work.
The equipment, systems and software solutions of material handling and logistics very often hold the key to a productive and profitable supply chain. These solutions include a broad array of equipment and systems that cut costs and improve organizational safety, productivity, quality and visibility.
MHI strives to maintain and stimulate the continuing growth of the industry by sponsoring world-class trade events, such as Modex and ProMat to showcase the best in class products and services of its member companies. We also offer a solution focused Web site at [url=http://www.mhi.org]http://www.mhi.org[/url] and the MHI Solutions magazine both of which deliver content focusing on the needs of manufacturing and supply chain professionals.
This morning’s keynote session features MHI CEO George Prest and Scott Sopher of Deloitte Consulting. They will preview the first in a series of MHI Annual Industry Reports. This year’s report is titled Innovations the Drive Supply Chains. The keynote begins at 8:30 a.m. in Room B312. You can also download the full report at MHI.org.
