SUMMARY:Metro Atlanta Chapter: What Broke the Internet of Things and Will It Trip Up AI?
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, October 12\, 2026\n6:00–8:00 PM\nPiccadilly Cafeteria – Tucker\, Georgia \nThe Internet of Things promised to transform the way devices\, systems\, and industries connect and operate. Years later\, the technology has delivered meaningful advances—but also exposed challenges involving implementation\, interoperability\, security\, business models\, and adoption. \nAt GSPE’s October Metro Atlanta Chapter meeting\, John A. Whitten will revisit the evolution of the Internet of Things and explore an important new question: Are some of the same issues that complicated IoT adoption likely to affect artificial intelligence? \nWhitten will share insights on what the engineering community can learn from the development of IoT\, how emerging technologies move from promise to practical application\, and what those lessons may mean as AI becomes increasingly embedded in engineering\, manufacturing\, and business operations. \nSchedule\n\n6:00 PM – Networking\n6:25 PM – GSPE announcements\n6:30 PM – Dinner\n7:00 PM – Presentation\n7:50 PM – Closing announcements and adjournment\n\nThe meeting is free and open to members\, visitors\, and guests. Attendees purchase their own dinner from the cafeteria. \nProfessional engineers may earn 1 PDH for attending the technical presentation. \nAbout the Speaker\nJohn A. Whitten has previously presented on emerging technology\, the Internet of Things\, Industry 4.0\, smart manufacturing\, and the disruptive consequences and opportunities created by new technologies. He returns to GSPE to provide an updated perspective on IoT and the lessons it may hold for the rapidly developing world

SUMMARY:Qualifications-Based Selection: What Engineers Need to Know
DESCRIPTION:Qualifications-Based Selection can directly affect how engineering firms compete for public-sector work\, how qualifications are evaluated\, and how professional services are procured. \nJoin GSPE for a virtual panel discussion focused on what professional engineers and engineering firms should understand about QBS — including how the process works\, how it affects firms pursuing public projects\, current QBS practices and challenges in Georgia\, and legislative efforts that could shape the future of engineering procurement. \nOur panel of experienced professional engineers will bring perspectives from practice\, advocacy\, procurement experience\, and decades of work within the engineering profession. \n \nPanelists \nRebecca BowmanEngineer\, attorney\, and forensic engineerRebecca brings a multidisciplinary perspective to QBS and has been actively involved in QBS initiatives\, including work associated with the NSPE-ACEC QBS Awards. \nColin MaynardProfessional Engineer\nColin will bring the perspective of a practicing engineer who responded to QBS-based procurements and was an advocate on legislation related to the process. \nDavid Russell\, PEProfessional EngineerWith more than 50 years of experience as a professional engineer and practitioner\, David will provide a long-term industry perspective on engineering procurement\, professional qualifications\, and the importance of selecting design professionals based on expertise and experience.
