Ready to put down that spreadsheet for good?

Written by Neil Baker | Oct 1, 2019 9:40:00 PM

Are you dependent on spreadsheets for tracking production runs or managing and analysing test data?

If you're an Australian Manufacturer and have considered upgrading your spreadsheets to a more modern platform, one designed specifically to manage workflows, trace everything, and provide you with continuous quality control monitoring of your production line, consider this:

The Australian government has announced the Manufacturing Modernisation Fund to support exactly this type of upgrade.

Key points:

  • Eligibility criteria - strictly for Australian SME manufacturers < 200 employees (headcount)
  • $50,000 to $100,000 of 1:1 match funding available in support of technology and efficiency improvements
  • Eligible costs:
    • Onboarding of new technology, including the subscription cost of modern cloud platforms
    • Costs directly associated with the implementation or integration of this new technology
  • Period:
    • 1:1 match funding available for a maximum of 2 years (some extensions will be considered). 
    • All approved projects must be completed by 30 June 2022

The Catch - you do need to act quickly: Application window closes on October 31, 2019
