Managing Automation, a Thomas Publishing Company, LLC publication, is accepting entries for the annual Progressive Manufacturing Awards through March 1, 2006. The awards honor manufacturing companies that are using automation and information technologies to transform their business and create a sustainable competitive advantage. A panel of judges will select seven award winners: one who best demonstrates mastery of each of six business disciplines, plus the Progressive Manufacturer of the Year award for the company that has best mastered technology-driven business transformation across their organization. Manufacturing companies of any size are eligible for consideration, and the nomination process is very simple.
The award winners will be honored at the Progressive Manufacturing Summit, to be held June 11-13, 2006, at the Green Valley Resort in Las Vegas.
