Integer Holdings Corporation has embraced their MES journey from their executive leadership to operators on the shop Floor. While keeping our eyes on the goal, installing MES at our first pilot site and working to build our MES CoE, we have had many learnings, challenges and successes along the way. We will share with you details of our journey thus far, highlighting the benefits MES is offering us now and will offer Integer in the future.
