Excellence in manufacturing shows in efficiency, sustainability, team satisfaction, and your bottom line. Your equipment’s performance drives it, your team’s dedication, and how quickly your facilities adopt innovation.

Your customers know excellence through high-quality products and precise delivery schedules, and your staff know excellence when they contribute to a constantly improving workflow every day. Achieving that excellence involves more than just “pulling the lever.” It calls for dedication to discovering and implementing the latest innovations in manufacturing, from technology to methodology.

That is why we are hosting the second annual Manufacturing Excellence Summit 2025.

Executives, operations managers, plant managers, and manufacturing stakeholders of all kinds can come together as we discuss ways to stay ahead of manufacturing trends and technologies to unlock improvements at every level of your business. This event is essential for operational improvement, automation, growth, and retention in the manufacturing industry.

What Is the Manufacturing Excellence Summit?

The Manufacturing Excellence Summit by Encompass Solutions will be held on August 27th, 2025, at the Revolutionary Mill in Greensboro, NC 27405. The summit will be held in Gallery 1250, where industry leaders will meet to explore the latest in manufacturing.

This year’s core focus areas will cover automation, employee retention, employee engagement, employment law, and risk management. Each session during the Summit will highlight a different focus area and feature a leader who will demonstrate how these areas work together to support and strengthen today’s manufacturing operations.

This is an exclusive event for manufacturing stakeholders and decision-makers to enhance your operations, employee satisfaction, innovation leveraging, and proactive risk management.

Why This Event Matters for Manufacturers

Manufacturers benefit from steady access to new technologies, trends, and strategies that work. Proven practices and shared expertise in manufacturing often lead to meaningful improvements and performance and efficiency, which is why we’re bringing decision-makers together. The Manufacturing Excellence Summit is an important opportunity for manufacturers for three key reasons:

Insights into Key Trends

A summit reveals insights into key trends and technologies shaping the future of manufacturing. From in-house tools to standout projects using current industry practices, you’ll explore real-world improvements and learn which strategies are delivering measurable results.

Peer Learning

When every member is an expert in their own right, we open the doors to unlimited peer learning from other manufacturing decision-makers. It’s not just networking, it’s a meeting of the minds when it comes to efficiency, integration, and strategy that you can learn from your fellow attendees.

Direct Access

The summit will feature sessions with industry thought leaders and solution providers. In addition to attending talks and hands-on sessions, attendees will gain direct access with the opportunity to ask questions and explore specific applications.

What Attendees Can Expect

Launched in December 2022 as a way of honoring employees who go above and beyond in their roles with the company, our first Spirit of Encompass Award has been won by our Marketing Lead, Ashley Limbers!

The Spirit of Encompass Award was established by our managing partners as a way for coworkers to nominate one of their own: the person who best embodied our corporate ideals that previous year by taking the initiative with integrity, innovation, and helpfulness in our shared cause of delivering exceptional customer care. The votes themselves, by being privately peer-nominated, provide insights into efforts that aren’t always evident from accounting and timesheet totals.

Ashley has worked at Encompass Solutions for seven months and is currently the Marketing Lead, overseeing all activities and communication channels used to promote the brand and products of the company. Simply put, Ashley’s peers think she is a Rockstar, with comments like “Ashley took on a role that had been vacant and hit her stride with limited resources for training. Not only did she quickly fill the gap, but she also significantly improved internal and external communication, organized social events, helped plan the retreat, and championed charity events. Ashley has made a huge difference in a relatively short time, and I am excited to see what she will do in the future!”

“She delivers on what she promises, and if she can’t meet her deadlines, she will tell you why to ask for support and presents the ‘next best options’. Ashley is extremely busy with her the tasks and responsibilities of her marketing role, yet is always willing to help with company events, charitable initiatives, corporate communications, and even decorating the office for seasonal celebrations. When it comes to organizing her work and planning for the future, Ashley is on top of it.”

“Ashley has fantastic people skills and a work ethic at play. She is always there behind the scenes supporting customers, sales, and the larger team. That is the heart of Encompass as an organization. We are not, and probably should be, superstars in our engagements. We exist in service roles to our customers and peers to support them as needed with color, humanity, humility, and flair.” That’s sort of Ashley’s universe.”

In receiving the award, Ashley said, “I am honored and humbled to be recognized, and I could not have achieved this award without our amazing team. I am grateful for all we have accomplished this year, and I am proud to work for an organization that focuses on innovation and its clients and staff”.

Well done, and many congratulations to Ashley!
