A typical SMAS project delivers £150,000 of value-added productivity improvements to your business

As the nation begins to recover from one of the worst economic downturns since the 1930s, we are encouraging manufacturers across Scotland to work together and share best practice to weather the recession. The Scottish Manufacturing Advisory Service can help your business reap the rewards of closer collaboration, which will help restore manufactured exports' share of the Scottish economy.

SMAS provides expert advice and one-to-one support, as well as training to help manufacturers improve their productivity and generate cost savings. SMAS offers a free diagnostic manufacturing review to manufacturing companies of all sizes and in all sectors, involving a diagnostic visit from a SMAS practitioner, with a report suggesting opportunities and actions for your company to improve productivity and competitiveness.

Steve Graham, director for SMAS, explained: "The value-added impact of SMAS since it was launched exceeds £41 million to the Scottish economy, with a typical SMAS project delivering £150,000 of value-added productivity improvements."
