MEP Affiliation & National Network
TMAC is a network affiliate of the Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The MEP affiliation enables TMAC to offer its customers a variety of enablers that include: technology acceleration, supplier development, sustainability, workforce development, and continuous improvement. When customers leverage TMAC, they pay for the hours of direct assistance they receive. MEP funding reduces customer project expenses, which allows TMAC to maintain an experienced staff and the outreach capabilities required to serve smaller manufacturers.
