Program Overview

MMAP is designed to support small- and mid-sized Massachusetts manufacturers as they prepare for the evolving demands of customers and a rapidly changing manufacturing landscape.

Through a combination of funding, expert guidance, and peer collaboration, the program helps manufacturers identify and implement strategic investments that drive long-term growth and operational improvement.

How It Works

Participating manufacturers begin by submitting an application outlining their current challenges, opportunities and growth goals. Selected companies will:

  • Receive a third-party assessment conducted by a third-party to evaluate operations and identify high-impact capital equipment investments
  • Develop a capital investment plan aligned with business needs that is eligible for MMAP grant funding
  • Engage in a cohort-based accelerator that promotes shared learning and collaboration

Accelerator Experience

As part of the MMAP cohort, manufacturers gain access to:

  • Peer-to-peer learning opportunities with fellow manufacturers
  • Industry experts and technical advisors
  • Workshops, speaker sessions, and curated resources
  • Connections to the broader Massachusetts manufacturing ecosystem

Areas of Impact

MMAP supports manufacturers in enhancing capabilities across a wide range of areas, including:

  • Digital transformation
  • Artificial intelligence (AI) adoption
  • Robotics and automation
  • Quality assurance and quality control
  • Workforce training and upskilling

The program is open to manufacturers across all sectors and is not limited to specific industries.
