The digital economy is here. Are you ready?

The adoption of digital technologies on the manufacturing floor can help Canadian SMEs to enhance their competitiveness, productivity, resilience and innovation in a changing world – yet today, many SMEs face challenges:

Understanding the benefits of digitization

Knowing where to prioritize

Scaling complex manufacturing processes

Retooling the workforce

Calculating return on investment

Knowing where to turn for support

An approved network partner for the Federal Government’s Canada Digital Adoption Program (CDAP), REMAP’s Smart Manufacturing for a Connected World program will help you plan and implement your digital transformation.

What is CDAP?

Established in 2021 by Innovation, Science and Economic Development (ISED) Canada, CDAP provides eligible Canadian SMEs with access to grants that support digitization efforts and increase competitiveness in the digital economy.

The Boost Your Business Technology Grant provides eligible SMEs with access to the services of an approved digital advisor who can help them to develop and execute a digital adoption plan.

The grant covers up to 90% of the eligible cost of advisory services, up to $15,000 per SME.

SMEs also have the opportunity to secure a loan at 0% interest from the Business Development Bank of Canada to acquire new technology solutions.

Who is eligible?

For profit organizations

Federally/provincially incorporated businesses and Canadian resident sole proprietors

SMEs with 1 to 499 full time equivalent employees

Businesses with a minimum of $500,000 of annual revenues in one of the three previous tax years
