SCALE YOUR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE WITH SMARTSCALE

REMAP SmartScale helps tariff-impacted SME manufacturers modernize with confidence.

Small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) manufacturers across Southern Ontario are facing increasing pressure from tariffs, rising operating costs, labour shortages, global competition and ongoing supply chain disruptions.

Many SMEs recognize opportunities to improve productivity and competitiveness through automation, digital technologies and process improvements. Yet modernization investments are challenging when resources are limited and the consequences of making the wrong decision are significant.

SmartScale can help.

Delivered by REMAP with Government of Canada support through the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario’s Regional Tariff Response Initiative (RTRI), SmartScale helps SME manufacturers modernize with greater confidence by reducing implementation risk and expanding access to expertise, resources and support.

We are now accepting applications for manufacturing modernization project proposals.
