About IIE Chapter 92, Greater Kansas City
The Greater Kansas City Chapter boasts over 100 members in the Kansas City area, including members as far
west as Manhattan, Kansas and as far east as Columbia, Missouri. Our members can be found in manufacturing,
distribution, service, consulting, education, and even retirement!
Our meetings range from dinner meetings on such topics as Lean Manufacturing, Quality Tools, and even the
new Sprint Center; to tours of such facilities as Harley-Davidson, Payless ShoeSource, Boulevard Brewing
Company, and the new Kansas City Star facility! We also participate in community service events and host
full day seminars with speakers from all over the country!
In addition to these great continuing education opportunities, we provide exposure to an excellent network
of fellow Industrial Engineers.
A Message From Our President
Thank you for visiting the Kansas City Chapter Website! If you are not familiar with the Institute of
Industrial Engineers or Chapter 92, I encourage you to browse through our newsletter archives. They will
give you a better idea about our Chapter and some of our past events.
Our officer team strives to make the Kansas City Chapter a strong one. We work to provide interesting
tours and dinner meetings, opportunities for networking and community service, and what I believe are two
very high-quality annual events. Our annual Mentor Day is held in October and draws industrial engineering
students from Kansas State and the University of Missouri, as well as professionals from around the Kansas
City area. All participants take part in a morning tour, followed by lunch and visits to mentor workplaces
in the afternoon. We also host an annual day-long local conference, with speakers from anywhere in the
country and proceeds supporting scholarships for industrial engineering students.
We are always looking for suggestions for meeting topics and tour locations. If you have any questions
about IIE, as well as comments or ideas, please send them my way. Thanks again for visiting us!
Sincerely,
Jennifer Albers
