PORTLAND, Oregon, October 10, 2014 – SSOE Group (www.ssoe.com), a global engineering, procurement, and construction management (EPCM) firm, announced today that SSOE Vice President Clem Wood will present at the annual SEMI Pacific Northwest fall breakfast forum. This year, the event is hosted by SSOE and will be held on Wednesday, October 29th, at SSOE’s office in Hillsboro, Oregon.
“Era of Internet of Things: A Technology Revolution” will explore how the Internet of Things, a growing network of devices and everyday things that use embedded technology to communicate via the internet, will change the face of technology. The forum will feature six speakers who will address wearable devices, healthcare instruments, sensors inside smart products that track data, big data for tracking real-time data, the smart home, and lean technology.
As director of numerous major basebuild and tool installation programs for the semiconductor industry, Wood will share some of SSOE’s latest innovations in lean engineering that are paving the way for faster, more efficient project delivery. “Our approach,” says Wood, “is to leverage today’s technology, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) techniques, to pioneer work approaches that maximize resources and minimize waste.” SEMI is the global industry association serving the manufacturing supply chain for the micro- and nano-electronics industries.
