Department Summary

CESMII is the national institute on Smart Manufacturing (SM) for the United States. OARC is the program and administrative home of CESMII, which it operates in partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy's Advanced Manufacturing Office. CESMII drives innovation in SM through a membership network, education and workforce development program, funded research projects, and a Smart Manufacturing Innovation Platform. Smart Manufacturing is the application of advanced technologies such as sensors, controls, analytics, modeling, and platforms to increase efficiency in manufacturing. CESMII's mission is to accelerate SM adoption, which will radically impact manufacturing performance through measurable improvements in areas such as quality, throughput, costs / profitability, safety, asset reliability, and energy productivity. By enabling frictionless movement of raw and contextualized data (i.e., information) between real-time operations and the people and systems that create value in and across manufacturing organizations, CESMII is ensuring the power of information and innovation is at the fingertips of everyone who touches manufacturing.
