This document summarizes key points from Broadwind's Q3 2015 earnings conference call:
- Broadwind discussed challenges in ramping up full tower production capacity and solutions being implemented around procurement processes and capital investments.
- The wind market continues to be driven by a large pipeline of projects under construction, particularly in Texas and the Midwest.
- Tower orders and backlog were down compared to Q3 2014 but are expected to increase in Q4 2015 with significant order announcements.
- Financial results showed declines in revenue and margins compared to Q3 2014 due to unfavorable tower mix. Liquidity improved with declining working capital and inventory levels projected to decrease further.

Executive Overview
Analytic strategies are at the core of digital innovation. It is a building block in digital manufacturing, autonomous supply chains, and digital path to purchase. New forms of analytics are defining new capabilities.
Traditional supply chains do not sense. They respond. The response is usually late, and out of step with the market. Today’s supply chains are dependent on structured data and Excel spreadsheets. Despite spending 1.7% of revenue on Information Technology (IT), Excel ghettos are scattered across the organization. Most organizations are held hostage by long and grueling ERP implementations only to find out at the end of the project that the business users cannot get to the data.
The traditional supply chain paradigm is an extension to the three-letter acronyms which dominated the client-server architected world of the 1990s—ERP, APS, PLM, SRM, and CRM—while the more enlightened business user understands that analytics are not an extension of yesterday’s alphabet soup.
Historically, analytics has only meant reporting. In contrast, today, analytic strategies are at the core. As analytics capabilities morph and change, analytics technologies are at the core of the architecture, sandwiched between the conventional applications and workforce productivity tools as shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Analytic Strategies at the Core of Digital Transformation
Current State
Today, the focus of analytics implementations is on data visualization, unstructured data mining, and data lake technologies. As will be seen in this report, this is rapidly changing. Within five years, the most disruptive technologies will be Blockchain and cognitive computing. New forms of analytics will make many of today’s technology approaches obsolete. Few companies, mainly early adopters, are working in these areas.
How will consumers shop in 2020 and how will their behaviour affect the supply chains? Eurogroup Consulting took part in the Shopping2020 research program and provides a full overview of supply chain trends, best practices and more than 30 recommendations to start preparing for 2020 today.
Digital Supply Chain - Insights on Driving the Digital Supply Chain Transform...Lora Cecere
Executive Summary
It started with the internet, and the drum beat continues. Mobile. Social. Cloud. Digital Products. Telematics. The Internet of Things. The list of enablers is endless.
Over the last decade, digital marketing departments quickly took advantage of new technologies to power marketing capabilities. As a result, companies have new products and services; but, over the last decade there has been little change in supply chain processes.
There is a great divide in organizations today. There are digital teams in marketing while there are traditional supply chain processes in operations. Many supply chain leaders are asking how they digitize their supply chain practices. This report is designed to help. Here we share a five-step process to get started, and we provide insights from recent research on how to transform manufacturing processes.
What Is Digital Business?
Digitization transforms businesses. A digital business model uses new forms of technology to create new forms of revenue and business value. It is about the use of combinations of technologies to sense changes in real-time and shape a meaningful output.
Digital business is about much, much more than the redefinition of business processes for B2B and B2C. While e-business strategies are foundational, and necessary, it is about more than e-business. In today’s supply chain, while B2C models are well defined and new supply chain models have embraced and redefined e-commerce delivery, B2B processes lag B2C. Today, only 9% of B2B commerce business flows through business networks. There are no digital B2B officers. Companies have been slow to adopt new forms of B2B.

Summary: This keynote address presented by Pamela Spence, EY Global Life Sciences Leader (pspence2@uk.ey.com) at MAPS 2018 – the annual meeting for Medical Affairs Professional Society – discusses our latest life sciences report and the industry demands for a customer-focused, data driven approach to health care. We describe the accelerating pace of change as technological advances and the escalating expectations of payers, physicians and patient consumers are combining to disrupt the life sciences business model. Data and algorithms that maximize health outcomes based on individual needs and preferences are becoming the ultimate health care consumable. To create value now and in a future that we call Life Sciences 4.0, life sciences companies must build – or participate in – interoperable information systems that collect, combine and share data.

How Volkswagen Mocked Corporate Social Responsibility: “Diesel Gate” Outs Sus...Sage HR
How Volkswagen Mocked Corporate Social Responsibility:
“DieselGate” Outs Sustainable Business Sham
In September 2015, the automotive industry played witness to the largest scandal among its ranks in recent history, as Volkswagen was caught cheating with its pants down. The German car manufacturer had recently overtaken Toyota in sales, in the first half of 2015, to establish itself as the leader of the global car market. Though, this shouldn't have been a surprise to anyone, since VW was largely leading the automotive industry in terms of revenues, profits, and assets even in 2013.
The world was left with jaws agape in early September, as the German giant admitted to placing “cheat” software in roughly 11 million of its diesel-engined cars worldwide. Carried out since 2009 onwards, this subterfuge was perpetrated in an effort to deceive pollutant emissions testing in developed markets like US and EU. As investigations into the fraud continue, the primary reason seems to be that Volkswagen did not wish to install a Urea-based exhaust system marketed as AdBlue – roughly $336 per unit – into the “clean diesel” engines which they'd spent years developing for their 2009 models. In-house testing into the engines revealed that they emitted roughly 35 to 40 times the amount of nitrogen oxide, linked to smog, acid rain, asthma, and other illnesses, above the limits allowed by clean air legislation in developed nations.
Suddenly, the car manufacturer was faced with two options – go back to the drawing board and miss out on the 2009 car season, or spend exorbitant amounts of money to fix the problem by retro-fitting their engines with AdBlue. They chose option three – cheat through a “defeat device” software. Ironically, the test which ultimately uncovered the deception was carried out by independent American researchers – working for an NGO, rather than the EPA or other bigwig agencies – to show their European counterparts that diesel engines can be used with cleaner emissions. Despite their published efforts coming to light in 2014, however, the EPA was unable to make Volkswagen admit to the cheat till September 2015 – after threatening to withhold approval for VW's and Audi's 2016 diesel models.
Now, after having lost its CEO in the wake of the scandal alongwith almost a fifth of its share value, Volkswagen is looking at criminal investigations from the US and Chinese governments, a legal penalty for $18 billion for the roughly 482,000 cars it sold in US, and class-action lawsuits from owners of post-2009 VW Jetta, Golf, Beetle, and Passat, as well as similar Audi diesel models. Even though the firm has set aside roughly $7.3 billion to deal with this scandal, early projections show that this amount may be grossly insufficient.
By now, we're sure that you have a flood of unanswered questions – What are these “defeat devices”? How do they affect the car's performance?

Assessing the three dimensional vegetation structure is important in fire management. Manually mapping forest structural characteristics is time consuming and hence expensive and automated methods should prove beneficial. In this research I investigated the use of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) for mapping vegetation height and canopy cover and to derive information on the understory. Airborne LiDAR data provided good quality information on both vegetation height and canopy cover, but understory information was more uncertain. The use of automated hand-held LiDAR data collection to obtain information on the understory and to complement the airborne LiDAR data was investigated and looks to have strong potential.
