Mission : The Cluster Prelucrări Metale Transilvania, Metallcluster Siebenburgen, Cluster Metal Manufactoring Transilvania  (PrelMet Transilvania), aims to increase the organizational capacity of the Cluster. The need for implementing this project is determined by the regional and national need of developing cluster structures, based on networking and wining the trust of the economic agents in this type of representation, cooperation, collaboration and development for the future of their communities. The idea of this project was determined by the fact that a cluster is a strong mechanism that can contribute to a sustainable development at regional level, for beginning, and after that at national level. The competitive advantages offered by the cluster structure are deriving from the microeconomic level and are leading towards innovation, increase of the efficiency and supporting the start-up process. Main advantages for the companies that are members in a cluster are:

(1)  common specialized human resources;

(2)  common suppliers and specialized clients;

(3)  specific infrastructure with training institutions adapted to cluster needs together with development and research institutions;

(4) dissemination of the knowledge inside  the cluster.

The main objective of the Cluster PrelMet Transilvania is to increase to companies’ efficiency and to reduce the differences between average level recorded at national level and the European Union’s level. The target is represented by recording economic increase by the members. As part of the main objective, it is desired that the clusters will include in the future more companies as the first result of the organizational enforcement, as well to create and implement an efficient communication system that will develop cooperation relations between cluster’s members and will gain also the trust in this organization that can offer them representativeness and can become a facilitator for their future development. A first step is straitening the organizational capacity of the cluster. For assuring the representativeness at regional level the cluster must extend its network of members including more companies in the area of metal processing that are willing to develop in this association, to work in a cluster network and to awareness them about the advantages of working in this associative form, to create and implement an efficient communication system that will help them to be a regional representative association and a facilitator for the future development
