SUMMARY:Operational Alignment Across Engineering and Manufacturing 
DESCRIPTION:Event details\n\n\n\nModern product organizations rely on four critical pillars – product life cycle management (PLM)\, enterprise resource planning (ERP)\, master resource planning (MRP)\, and engineering change management – but these functions often operate in silos. In this webinar\, Crowe specialists will discuss these interconnected pillars to show how product data\, production planning\, and controlled engineering change workflows form a unified operational ecosystem. \n\n\n\nWe will explore how integrated PLM-to-ERP processes lead to more accurate bills of material and routings\, how MRP extends ERP to inform precise material and production planning\, and how clear distinctions between engineering change notices (ECNs) and engineering change orders (ECOs) prevent disruptions\, waste\, and downstream confusion. \n\n\n\nParticipants can learn how to create connected data flows from engineering through manufacturing\, strengthen traceability\, and improve decision-making across the product life cycle. The session will highlight practical challenges\, real-world impacts\, and actionable strategies organizations can implement to reduce risk\, increase efficiency\, and enable scalable growth. \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nAfter attending this session\, you should be able to: \n\n\n\n\nExplain how PLM-to-ERP integration creates a single source of truth across product\, engineering\, and operational teams\n\n\n\nDifferentiate between ECNs and ECOs and identify when each should be initiated in the change process\n\n\n\nDescribe how MRP complements ERP to improve material planning\, inventory control\, and production scheduling\n\n\n\nEvaluate operational risks caused by disconnected systems and unclear change processes across PLM\, ERP\, and MRP\n\n\n\nApply best practices to streamline engineering-to-production handoffs and reduce rework\, scrap\, and planning delays\n\n\n\n\nContinuing professional education\n\n\n\nPrerequisites: None \n\n\n\nProgram level: Overview \n\n\n\nAdvance preparation: None \n\n\n\nDelivery method: Webinar (group internet based) \n\n\n\nField of study: Information technology \n\n\n\nThis session is recommended for 1.0 hour of CPE credit. \n\n\n\nNote: All participants MUST be logged into the webinar INDIVIDUALLY to receive CPE credit. CPE credit will only be granted in the name of the individual logged into the LIVE presentation. Crowe is unable to grant CPE credit for groups viewing the webinar or for viewing on-demand recordings of the webinar. \n\n\n\nThere is no registration fee for participating in this webinar; therefore\, there is no cancellation fee. \n\n\n\nAdditional CPE information

SUMMARY:Navigating the new risk landscape: AI\, governance\, and the path to maturity
DESCRIPTION:Description: \n\n\n\n70% of risk leaders say the landscape is more complex than it was two years ago. With the rapid adoption of AI\, multiplying regulations\, and intensifying cyber threats\, risk teams are busier than ever. Investment and intent are at an all-time high\, yet true resilience remains elusive for many. This phenomenon is known as the “Middle Maturity Trap”: a state where organizations achieve high levels of activity — logging risks\, adopting controls\, and mapping frameworks — but lack the consistency and governance to turn that activity into foresight. \n\n\n\nJoin us as we unpack the findings from the inaugural 2025 Risk Intelligence Report. Based on proprietary telemetry from the AuditBoard platform and surveys of over 400 risk leaders\, this session will reveal why “surface compliance” is failing and how top-tier organizations are distinguishing themselves. We will explore the five critical dimensions of risk intelligence—from AI automation to cross-functional collaboration—and provide a strategic roadmap to help you move from reactive oversight to competitive advantage. \n\n\n\nLearning objectives:  \n\n\n\n\nIdentify the “Middle Maturity Trap”: Recognize the signs of high-activity/low-consistency risk management and understand why “check-the-box” compliance no longer ensures resilience.\n\n\n\nBenchmark against the 5 dimensions of risk intelligence: Evaluate your organization’s maturity across the five critical pillars: AI & automation\, control maturity\, framework coverage\, collaboration\, and risk discipline.\n\n\n\nNavigate the “Frontline Test” of AI: Understand how leading enterprises are governing AI adoption to balance speed with trust\, avoiding the “pilot purgatory” that plagues less mature organizations.\n\n\n\nOperationalize connected risk: Learn specific strategies to break down silos between audit\, risk\, infosec\, and compliance\, creating a unified\, real-time view of risk.\n\n\n\nApply a 3-phase strategic roadmap: Walk away with a concrete plan to establish clear governance\, drive execution discipline\, and scale market leadership within your own organization.\n\n\n\n\nCPE credit(s): 1 CPE upon live viewing and participation. CPEs not offered on-demand. \n\n\n\nField of study: Information Technology \n\n\n\nInstructional delivery method: Group Internet Based \n\n\n\nLevel: Basic \n\n\n\nPrerequisite: None \n\n\n\nAdvanced preparation: None  \n\n\n\n*Click here for more CPE information.
