Risk= Value Accelerator

The MTC has developed over 100 value accelerators.A value accelerator is any toolkit, methodology, or transferable best practice that:• improve productivity• reduce cost• embed innovation• de-risk the use of new technology in a factory

The value accelerators will be of interest to any business wishing to engage with new – or new to them – manufacturing technologies.

The MTC offers a complimentary review of your operations. This can discover opportunities for cost saving, de-risking and accelerating the introduction of technology and improved processes into your business.

If an SME invests in 5 days of support from the MTC, up to a further 5 days of funded support may be available. If an SME invests in additional support, again matching days may be funded.
