"Working with MMEC saved the ISO management team many hours." -- Wavelength ISO Coordinator

Our home office is in the College of Engineering at Montana State University, Bozeman, with field offices at the MSU TechLink Center and in Missoula, Kalispell, Billings and Helena. We have a workforce training grant through the Montana Agro-Energy WIRED project to work with related firms in the 32-county WIRED region of the state.

MMEC is part of a nationwide network, the NIST Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP), to assist small and mid-size manufacturers in becoming more competitive and profitable. Because we don't pretend to know everything, we have cultivated extensive resources and partnerships in Montana and elsewhere to find the answers or additional services you need. Our smart 800-number 800-MEP-4MFG connects Montana callers to MMEC; from other states, the connection is to the MEP center in that area. MMEC receives financial and program support from MSU, the State of Montana, the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST), MEP and other private and public partners.
