We Will Help You Meet the Supply Chain Needs of Other Manufacturers and Find the Supplies & Services You Need to Make Your Products

The manufacturing process for any product relies on access to essential materials. However, sourcing rare resources or navigating complex supply chains can be challenging. At TechHelp, we understand these difficulties, especially when striving for American-made standards or reducing the impact of international shipping. 

Program Overview: 

As Idaho’s representative of the national Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) program, TechHelp works with the MEP Supplier Scouting Program (SSP) to help Idaho manufacturers respond to the supply chain needs of manufacturers in Idaho and nationwide. his program aims to keep millions of dollars in supply chain production within the U.S. by linking your organization with appropriate domestic suppliers, even those that are unique or hard to find.

We offer three services to support a stronger, more resilient supply chain:

Need Suppliers?

If you have a supply chain need or want to respond to a SSP request, let us know by completing our short intake form. Our goal is to connect you with a local supplier and then to explore our regional and national resources to meet your needs. In addition, we will work closely with IMA to route incoming supply chain opportunities to Idaho Manufacturers.
