SecureAmerica Institute and Project MFG partnership highlights future manufacturing workforce
The SecureAmerica Institute is partnering with Project MFG to host competitions for students and address manufacturing skills gaps. A team from Bryan ISD competed in qualifying rounds last week in Jacksonville, Texas, for a chance to win a $100,000 grand prize.
Leveraging data to increase supply chain resilience
Dr. Eleftherios Iakovou, the director of supply chain management for SAI and the director of manufacturing and logistics innovation initiatives for the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, is working on a holistic end-to-end supply chain management data-driven framework to detect problems and increase supply chain resiliency and agility of supply chains in the United States.
Clean energy alternative for steel manufacturing could reduce carbon emissions
The SecureAmerica Institute will provide necessary resources and industry connections to support MetPeel, a new low-temperature, single-step mechanical process to make steel sheet and strip that reduces energy consumption and carbon emissions in one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize — steel.
SecureAmerica Institute set to galvanize Texas’ aerospace manufacturing community
The Department of Defense has awarded the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) a grant to establish the Texas Defense Aerospace Manufacturing Community (TDAMC). This five-year program will inject targeted smart manufacturing skills and technologies into Texas’ diverse aerospace manufacturing portfolio to support defense aerospace manufacturing needs and affiliated supply chains across the state.
