“Innovation knows no bounds; it’s driven by the desire to make a difference.” Meet Dan McGrath, a smart manufacturing expert, whose commitment to innovation turned a simple demo into an extraordinary journey. A leading HVAC manufacturer in Charlotte wanted to see Cognizant’s smart manufacturing solution firsthand. Dan knew that a hands-on demo was the best way to showcase the technology, but there was a challenge. The 200-pound demo system was in Chicago, nearly 800 miles away. Airlifting it was risky. So, Dan made a bold decision: he would drive it there himself. Along the way, Dan made a stop at a tech event in Atlanta, turning his road trip into a 1,000-mile opportunity to showcase innovation. By the time he reached Charlotte, his dedication had already made an impact. The result? ✅ An innovation lab ✅ A pipeline of new business opportunities ✅ A strategic commitment to enhance the smart manufacturing program with Cognizant Beyond work, Dan is a grandfather of four and a fitness enthusiast who never misses his daily run or a game of pickleball. His commitment to both his craft and his family truly raises the bar. Do you have a story about how you’ve raised the bar? Tell us in the comments ⬇️

As business needs grow more complex, the ability for AI agents to collaborate and adapt becomes essential. A multi-agent system is a network of agents that collaborate with each other and the user to support human decision-making. Among the key business benefits, multi-agent systems help break down enterprise silos by enabling AI agents across departments—such as HR, logistics and procurement—to work together seamlessly.
