At the same time, teams are drowning in unstructured files \u2014 drawings, quotes, QC reports, and tribal process notes \u2014 making it harder than ever to reuse past work, avoid repeat mistakes, and train new talent. AI has the power to reverse this trend \u2014 not by replacing experts, but by capturing, structuring, and amplifying their knowledge across engineering, procurement, and operations. Join CADDi\u2019s VP of Partnerships Patrick Harrigan and CADDi\u2019s VP of Engineering Chris Cope for a deep-dive discussion on: You Will Learn Why knowledge attrition is the #1 hidden cost in manufacturing transformation How AI is being applied today to digitize, structure, and unlock legacy engineering + supplier data Real examples of teams using AI to speed RFQs, avoid repeat quality issues, and ramp new engineers faster Frameworks for evaluating AI tools that support \u2014 not disrupt \u2014 your workforce A practical roadmap to start preserving expertise before it's gone This session is designed for forward-thinking manufacturing leaders who want to future-proof their organizations and empower their teams \u2014 not replace them.
