Buy American Supplier Scouting

The Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) has partnered with the departments of Transportation, Energy, and Defense as well as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to focus on finding business opportunities for small manufacturers by matching their capabilities with the supply chain needs of America's original equipment manufacturers. To take advantage of the current Supplier Scouting opportunities, view the listed opportunities below.

In addition, IMEC has taken a local initiative to help companies in Illinois source their products through local suppliers. For more information on the Illinois initiative, click the Manufacturer Request form below. Specific requests will be posted as they are received.
