MODEX 2028 runs three days, one fewer than in 2026. Booth time at a shorter show goes quickly.
Starting early also fits how automation projects get funded. Many teams set capital budgets a year or more ahead. A first conversation now puts real numbers in front of your finance team.

By April, our engineers will know your operation. Your booth visit becomes a working session, not an introduction.
"The buyers who get the most from MODEX start talking with us long before the show. We review their data over the winter. Then they walk into Atlanta with options already on the table. Three days goes a lot further that way."
Ed Romaine, VP of Marketing and Business Development, ISD
Most teams arrive with one or two big questions. We start there, then work through the details that shape the answer.
| The Question You Bring | What Our Engineers Look At |
|---|---|
| Is my building ready for automation? | Clear height, floor load, column spacing, docks and power |
| Which picking approach fits my orders? | Order lines, units per line, SKU velocity and pick method today |
| Can we grow without a new building? | Storage density, peak volumes and space you can reclaim |
| How much labor can we redeploy? | Staffing by shift, turnover and the tasks that tie up people |
| What will it cost, and when does it pay back? | A budgetary range, the business case and the payback drivers |
"Every building has a different limiting factor. For one customer it is ceiling height. For another it is the number of SKUs or the peak in November. The meeting finds that limit first, because it decides which technologies are worth your time on the show floor."
Robert Jones, Senior Distribution Consultant, ISD
Send what you have when you book. Partial data is fine, and more detail gives you a more specific answer.

You meet ISD systems engineers with decades of experience designing and installing automation. They speak at industry events and serve on MHI industry groups.

ISD is OEM-agnostic. We work with leading manufacturers of ASRS, conveyor, sortation, AMRs and robotics. We choose equipment for your operation, then select the manufacturers that fit.
"We are not tied to one brand, because no one manufacturer does everything extremely well. In one facility we might combine several, because each fits a different part of the job. Our customers get the design that fits their operation, not the one that is easiest to sell."
Tony Morgott, President, ISD
After your meeting, ISD documents your requirements and constraints. Our goal is to deliver a preliminary assessment within two weeks after MODEX closes.
If your project needs deeper analysis, the next step is the OptimalOps-Process™. Its eight steps take you from data collection to a full implementation plan.
Some teams move straight into design. Others use the assessment to support a budget request or compare proposals.
"A good MODEX meeting should change what you do next week, not just what you remember from the show. If we have done our job, you leave Atlanta with a clear next step and the data to defend it."
Ed Romaine, VP of Marketing and Business Development, ISD

Yes. Your meeting is with our engineers, not a booth location. We will send the booth number once MHI assigns it.
Booth meetings run 30 or 45 minutes. Each one leaves a 15-minute buffer before the next, so your team is never rushed.
Yes. Many teams start with a video call months ahead. That gives our engineers time to review your data before Atlanta.
ISD is exhibiting only at MODEX in Atlanta. If you plan to attend MODEX West in Las Vegas, schedule a free consultation and we will meet by video.
