NORCROSS, Ga. - PennZone -- The Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE) held its first in-person Annual Conference & Expo in three years – held May 21-24 in Seattle – giving attendees a chance to honor the profession's best and brightest with live applause and appreciation.
IISE's top award, the Frank & Lillian Gilbreth Industrial Engineering Award, went to IISE Fellow and long-time member Rajan Batta. "I am extremely grateful and humbled to receive IISE's Gilbreth award," Batta told ISE magazine.
