MAS Delivers £28m Reward Since Launch
01 Dec 2003
Figures released last month show that the Government's Manufacturing Advisory Service has delivered a total added value of £28 million to UK firms since its launch in April 2002.
The new report, launched by Trade and Industry Secretary Patricia Hewitt at the Confederation of British Industries (CBI) conference, shows that the service has provided an average added value of £116,000 for every company assisted.
Patricia Hewitt said: "The MAS is one of our great success stories.
Today's figures clearly show the benefits of focussed, practical, hands on advice. The results are a tribute to the care and dedication shown by all the staff at every MAS centre.
"In an increasingly competitive global economy British manufacturers must constantly find new ways to innovate to produce the best possible product. MAS is playing a key role by helping UK manufacturers share knowledge so they compete at the very cutting edge."
