Supplier and End User Collaboration – Learn About MHI Solutions Groups

Recently, two new groups have organized and started operating as MHI Solutions Groups – the Automation Solutions Group (ASG), and the Information Systems Solutions Group (ISSG).

These Solutions Groups are an excellent opportunity for MHI members to directly interact with the manufacturing and supply chain (end-user) community.

What are MHI Solution Groups all about?
— Solutions Groups offer MHI member company representatives and their customers (among others, including media, educators, consultants, etc.) together in a non-commercial environment to discuss topics of interest to both parties.

–The goal of MHI Solutions Groups to provide a “safe harbor” venue for sharing information, awareness, education, best practices and lessons learned.

–In general, topics for discussion are related to the U.S. Roadmap for Material Handling & Logistics or the MHI Annual Industry Report, yet will expand over time.

–Solutions Groups will focus on establishing a direct connection with the end user community. Some programing will include market research and other information gathering exercises in order to provide timely, relevant responses and actionable information to our MHI Member and your Customer community through any of several marketing and outreach channels.

–As Solutions Groups grow their membership – suppliers and end users are all welcome to join – it will be the industry’s foremost venue for collaboration. The output will be knowledge sharing to address current and future supply chain challenges and opportunities.
