The
National Manufacturing Advisory Centre Programme
The National Manufacturing Advisory Centre Programme is
a partnership between Ntsika (the implimenting agency of
the Department of Trade and Industry's small business
development strategy), the CSIR and the National
Productivity Institute (NPI) to establish two pilot
regional centres to assist existing small, medium and
micro-enterprise (SMME) manufacturers improve their
competitiveness and growth in the local, national and
international market places. The MAC Programme’s
vision is to supply high-quality advisory services to
existing manufacturing SMMEs to ensure a quantum
improvement in their quality, competitiveness and
productivity. The emphasis is on Historically
Disadvantaged Individuals’ businesses, and the aim is
to improve these businesses over time by enabling them
to join the mainstream economy and eventually become
sustainable exporters. The MAC Programme’s target
market is small and medium-sized manufacturing
enterprises that employ up to 200 individuals. |
