Manufacturing Technology Solutions Accelerator
UDRI's Manufacturing Technology Solutions Accelerator connects manufacturers to resources that increase their competitive advantage and help them grow. Also known as FASTLANE, MTSA is team of specialized manufacturing and engineering consultants with over 200 years of combined manufacturing experience.
As a non-profit organization and member of the national network of Manufacturing Extension Partnerships (MEP), FASTLANE performs market outreach to a network of manufacturers, suppliers, engineers, scientists, and other professionals across the greater Dayton, Ohio region. These connections allow FASTLANE to link manufacturers with needed solutions quickly.
Each FASTLANE team member has a manufacturing background. This helps us identify technical and business improvement opportunities to grow your business. As an unbiased, third-party advisor we are not tied to a particular solution or provider—we seek out the best solution for your business because our success depends on your success.
The ability to apply technical capabilities, expertise and resources from UDRI, the University of Dayton and our regional partners is what sets FASTLANE apart. Moreover, because we are the greater Dayton region MEP, we can help control project costs for manufacturers across our region.
