Business Minister, Mark Prisk, launched a new advisory service for all manufacturing business this week – to be known as MAS (Manufacturing Advisory Service) with details available at www.mymas.org. The service should offer a range of services from an enquiry line to national events and a consultancy service with associated funding available. “Manufacturing contributes half of Britain’s exports and has much higher productivity than the rest of the economy so it is essential to our plans for growth,” said the Business Minister.
The new service and manufacturing initiative will be delivered by a consortium, comprised of Grant Thornton, Pera, WM Manufacturing Consortium Ltd and SWMAS Ltd. Karl Eddy, from the consortium, said that ‘we encourage business leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs in the manufacturing sector to contact a local advisor to find out more about how MAS can deliver real benefits for their business."
