Hi everyone, I’m Ethan Copple, a systems scientist with a background in industrial engineering and anthropology. I'm wrapping up a Ph.D. in IE focused on complex systems analysis and improvement that examines healthcare delivery through a supply chain lens. I'll be graduating this fall and looking to transfer my skills to industry and the reindustrialization movement. I’m especially interested in the intersection of operations, strategy, and human factors. Excited to connect, share ideas, and contribute to the conversation, especially in relation to the infrastructures needed to reindustrialize.

New Consolidated Console is Here!I like the redesign a lot - it makes the UI a lot easier to navigate on the main site without the drop downs. If the community page can be integrated, I think that'd be great but I also understand there might be limitations with the community.noramark vs. normark domains.

Modernizing Manufacturing Networks:I think this gets at the heart of the soft infrastructures necessary to (re)develop manufacturing capability and capacity. There's still more to the complete picture, but building out a capability to reliably connect manufacturers is definitely one of the bigger steps!
