Manufacturing Support Network

The Manufacturing Support Network directory is your gateway to organisations that offer support to manufacturing companies in Scotland. You can use the search functions to find and contact organisations for specific types of support.

You can search the database by:

• using the Visual Search tab to search by service, then sub-service (in top blue bar),
• using the Detailed Search for an advanced search (in top blue bar),
• using the Regions to filter to support in that area,
• using the Sectors to filter to support in that sector,
• using keywords (scroll down to box below Search Results and above list view table - e.g. organisation name, specific activity...).

The Visual Search is designed to give an at a glance overview of the data that users can then drill down into. Click on any coloured octagon to see the sub-services associated with that service (if applicable - some services do not have sub-services). Clicking a sub-service will populate the search results table below.

Note: you can only select one service and sub-service at a time via the visual search mode. The Detailed Search mode allows you to select multiple service options, regions and sectors. Click on each box to select and click again to deselect.

You can further refine your results by entering keywords in the field above the search results table.

Use the Reset Search link at the top of the search results or top of the page, to start again. To go back to either Visual or Detailed Search, just scroll back up the page to select that option.

Once you've narrowed down your search results, you can view them as a list or on a map, which you can toggle between using the large blue List View and Map View boxes above the results table. Click on any organisation in the list to view a pop-up showing descriptions of what is offered by that organisation for that service category.

If your organisation entry needs to be amended, simply click the link to submit a revision at the bottom of the full details pop-up.

The directory is open to all existing organisations representing networks that provide knowledge, expertise, services, support or specific interests aimed at development of the manufacturing sector e.g. industry bodies, innovation centres, academia and government agencies in Scotland.
