EMSNOW From the Show Floor: APEX 2026 – Jason Spera, CEO Aegis Software

Jason Spera discusses Aegis’ Software’s acquisition of Simio with EMSNOW in this information-packed update. Aegis Software’s manufacturing execution and operations capabilities are well-aligned with Simio’s digital twin advanced planning and scheduling system. So much so, that customers with their ‘Factory Logix’ software already installed can be almost instantly up and running with Simio’s scheduling function, giving them a dashboard into the past, present and future of their manufacturing environment. It’s a dramatic move forward, in the path to truly autonomous manufacturing. Imagine being able to conduct virtual ‘what-if’ analyses to, say, reconfigure your entire factory operation. Now customers can see a reality-based simulation, optimized from their actual manufacturing programs, to run a virtual representation of an ideal future manufacturing configuration.
