Let me invite you to the information sessions on the SMART Programs that will take place at different locations across Ontario from February to June 2017. As you may know, the SMART Green Program is open to small- and medium-sized manufacturers throughout Ontario with a minimum of 10 full time employees. To be eligible, the applying facility’s GHG emissions must be under 25,000 tonnes per year and it must not be participating in or have not opted into Ontario’s Cap & Trade Program. SMART Green provides assistance in the form of non-repayable grants of 50 per cent of eligible costs up to $200,000.
The SMART Operational Assessments program provides 50% of eligible consulting fees to a maximum of $15,000 for Northern Ontario manufacturers who retain the services of a qualified service provider to conduct various assessments such as a market analysis or export development plans, value chain assessments, lean assessments, expansion plans, IT/ERP solution selection process, quality improvement opportunities, productivity assessments and others.
