Each of the 78 MEP center’s individuality results from its respective charter, which, in
turn, reflects the needs and priorities of its stakeholders, location, and client firms. As providers
of services that help small manufacturing firms become more productive in all of their functions,
MEP centers can influence their client firms’ evolution towards high performance, which would
include a focus on training and other flexible work practices. Yet, not all of the MEP centers
report that they provide technical assistance in human resource-related activities to their client
firms. In fact, some of the centers report no assistance in this topic area at all. This study
attempted to understand why some MEP centers do not place a high value on training and other
flexible work practices as critical components of the services they provide to their client firms.
