Since we launched the Packaging Automation Forum in 2006, late January has become one of my favorite times of the year. By that time I’m usually in detailed conversations with the speakers we’ve lined up for the Packaging Automation Forum. And this year we have some excellent speakers indeed. Take Scott Schienvar, for example, the logistics director at L’Oreal.
Last week I had a great chat with Schienvar. With a background in manufacturing at Church & Dwight and Anheuser Busch, Schienvar is no newcomer to finding ways of using manufacturing intelligence software to drive efficiency in packaging operations. He’s made some real strides in this area at L’Oreal, and he’ll be sharing his experiences at the Packaging Automation Forum in a presentation called “Drive Line Performance by Turning Data into Useful Information.”
