The Best Investment You’ve Never Heard Of: Why MEP Is Saving U.S. Manufacturing!
Quietly operating in the background of American manufacturing is one of the nation’s most effective programs, NIST’s Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP). Designed as a public–private network, MEP helps small and medium-sized manufacturers modernize operations, embrace technology, and compete in a global economy that’s changing faster than ever. While large corporations often have access to consultants, engineers, and global supply chains, smaller manufacturers typically work with tighter budgets, limited expertise, and far less time. That’s where MEP steps in. With a nationwide network of nearly 1,400 experts and thousands of affiliated organizations, the program connects manufacturers of every size and specialty

From edge-holding coatings that stay sharp under pressure to inserts built for longer life and consistent performance, it’s all about cutting costs while keeping the spindle turning. Oh, and stick around—because Kennametal is giving away a custom $4,000 toolbox packed with holders, inserts, and even a voucher for more tooling!
