AWARD CITATION

The group is honored for exceptional leadership in developing the NIST Smart Manufacturing Systems Test Bed, which enables transformative innovation in manufacturing through the adoption of critical digital technologies. As the first standards-based integration of manufacturing systems, the test bed provides foundational documents, open data and technology demonstrations. These outputs support innovation in commercial software, research and workforce training, which has led to new products in use by manufacturers and the technical resources needed by industry to use these products reliably.
