Center for Advanced Manufacturing Excellence: Florida MEP Center – Department of Commerce
Recipient: Florida Makes, Inc.
Award: $4,210,215
Description: Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) is a public-private partnership, designed from inception as a cost-share program. Federal appropriations pay one-half, with the balance for each Center funded by state / local governments and/or private entities, plus client fees. This cost-share model contributes to MEP's success. A GAO study found that because client fees give manufacturers a higher stake in the outcome of services, the positive impact on their businesses is greater. Meanwhile, public funding allows smaller manufacturers to afford services. As a public-private partnership, the Program delivers a high return on investment to taxpayers. For every dollar of federal investment in FY 2019, the MEP National Network generated $33.80 in new sales growth and $32.20 in new client investment. This translates into $4.7 billion in new sales. During this same time, for every $1,221 of federal investment, the Network created or retained one manufacturing job.
