About this support

Manufacturing Connect (MC) is a short, intensive scheme delivered through the Cheshire and Warrington Growth Hub to help manufacturing SMEs boost their performance and productivity. It is designed to quickly build confidence and a clear business case for adopting new digital technologies, focusing on three areas: customer relationship management, resource management and production planning. The programme is aimed at manufacturers at any stage of digital adoption, whether already on the path to investing in new technology or some way from considering it. It takes approximately five hours to complete and is described as short, sharp and intense, enabling participants to achieve a lot in a short amount of time. The programme is fully funded for eligible SMEs, meaning there is no cost to the business for taking part. Manufacturers interested in the programme are directed to contact the Growth Hub for further information and to register.
