Abstract: Purpose - The aim of this paper is to summarise the characteristics of, and results from, a large‐scale project to promote productivity improvement throughout Turkey's provinces. Design/methodology/approach - The paper describes the aims and approach of the project leading to a quantitative summary of outputs. Findings - The Turkish Productivity Center (MPM), through the information gained by these projects, has been able to implement a range of productivity improvement projects at the regional and sector level in subsequent periods. Practical implications - The paper acts as a useful model for other productivity support agencies which wish to create wide‐ranging intervention programmes at regional and national level. Originality/value - The paper gives important details about the foreground and background activities involved in running a major national project.
