The IRC Network consists of seven nonprofit Industrial Resource Centers located strategically throughout the Commonwealth and affiliated with the national Manufacturing Extension Program (MEP) as part of the PA MEP .
Established to help manufacturers respond to changing markets, new technology and the competitive pressures of today’s global economy, these Centers offer small and medium-sized businesses a wide range of services. From business growth, innovation, process improvement and training, there’s little Pennsylvania’s IRCs can’t do to support manufacturers needs for growth.
