Meet AVEVA + Schneider Electric at ISPE in Washington, DC
Join us at this year’s ISPE conference in Washington, DC to hear how AVEVA and Schneider Electric are helping Life Sciences teams accelerate delivery, strengthen compliance, and build the data foundation for resilient, future-ready manufacturing. Stop by to continue the conversation, see practical approaches, and connect with our experts onsite.
Two sessions. One theme: digital continuity from project delivery to operations.
Session 1 - From Digital Transformation to Autonomous Pharma: Building Data-Centric, Compliant and Resilient Manufacturing Operations
Mon, Oct 19, 2026 | 5:00-5:30 PM | Presenter: Neil Smith, Segment President, Consumer Packaged Goods - Schneider Electric
What you'll learn:
- Why competitive advantage comes from connected, contextualized, trusted data—not point solutions
- Schneider Electric research: 36% of US Life Sciences leaders prioritize autonomous ops in 12 months, rising to 70% (1–5 years) and 87% (6–10 years)
- The building blocks: unified data + semantic models, digital twins, software-defined automation, edge/AI, open interoperability
- How this enables simpler compliance, stronger data integrity, review-by-exception, and less manual work
- Real-world examples connecting enterprise systems, EBR, historians, EMS/BMS, and equipment into one operational view
Session 2 - Rethinking Capital Projects Delivery: Top 10 Do's and Don’ts
Tue, Oct 20, 2026 | 4:30–5:00 PM | Presenter: Thomas McCarthy, Industry Principal – Life Sciences, AVEVA
What you'll learn:
- How to address the most common breakdowns in today’s delivery and tech transfer practices, including:
- Handover discontinuity across the tech transfer lifecycle
- Megaproject unpredictability and lack of repeatability
- GMP / non-GMP fragmentation
- Vendor interface “walls”
- Interoperability barriers driven by inconsistent information models
- A practical set of 10 do’s and don’ts that translate digital continuity from an aspiration into day-to-day delivery decisions
- How to reduce avoidable friction, rework, and technical debt—without slowing execution
Fill out the form to schedule a quick conversation with AVEVA + Schneider Electric at Booth #728. If you’re onsite, we’ll confirm a time to meet you during the event. If you’re not attending ISPE, we’ll have one of our experts reach out with tailored guidance for your life sciences roadmap.
