NA 2004 Free Executive Forums On OpX, RFID And Logistics Security MHIA Has Partnered With ARC Advisory Group To Create The NA 2004 Executive Forums

In addition to industry- and issue-specific Workshops and free show floor Seminars, three FREE Executive Forums will address today's market dynamics and associated emerging technologies that affect the material handling and logistics industry. MHIA has partnered with ARC Advisory Group to create this leading-edge programming to help bring a larger audience of buyers to the 2004 Show. The Forums are FREE to registered Show attendees, and are moderated by Sandy Towle, Director Strategic Advisory Service, ARC Advisory Group.

Monday morning's session explores Operational Excellence (OpX), an approach to business created by ARC Advisory Group. OpX is a journey of continuous improvement applied to all aspects of the supply chain. Keynote speakers are executives in their own companies who have used this model with great results.

Tuesday morning's forum is dedicated to presenting the basics of RFID (required by January 2005 by Wal-Mart and the Department of Defense). Experts will share the most current technical developments and latest applications.

Wednesday morning's session discusses the issue of logistics security in the post 9/11 world. The forum will allow attendees to benchmark their own company's practices and plans against the insights and experiences of keynote speakers.

Attending such value-added educational opportunities also increases an exhibitor's ROI from participating in NA 2004. There's no better way to broaden your focus far beyond your own booth. For more details on the Free Executive Forums, visit www.NA2004.org.
