For people, place, prosperity and planet, we deliver impact with measurement science

Prosperity

Manufacturer Measurement Network

Manufacturing standards that support industrial innovation

The manufacturing supply chain is the lifeblood of UK industry, driving the services and infrastructure essential to economic growth and development. Remaining productive, agile and competitive in this evolving space requires continuous innovation and the uptake of cutting-edge measurement standards. The implementation of advanced metrology techniques will ensure quality, reduce production time and costs, minimise environmental impact and reinforce a company’s position at the forefront of its sector.  

The Manufacturer Measurement Network (MMN) supports the UK manufacturing supply chain by identifying innovation challenges, disseminating knowledge and offering training. We work across the entire manufacturing sector to help industry implement revolutionary measurement science and standards within their business, so they can validate the components they manufacture. 

Our role is to help the prosperity of advanced manufacturing to: 

  • Minimising the production of non-conforming parts 

  • Upskill the workforce and build staff awareness to ensure the correct measurement equipment is used at the right time in the production process 

  • Build confidence in a manufacturer’s quality system, which can be demonstrated to auditors, customers or other third parties 

  • Enhance processes, production and efficiency to help competitiveness 

We have vast experience in industrial metrology and frequent exposure to the latest measurement equipment and methodologies. We evaluate new measurement systems to identify their strengths and weaknesses and to provide practical training on measurement methods.
