This study established relevant criteria for developing the capacity building in machine tools industry. A preliminary study was conducted in some relevant establishments in Nigeria through questionnaires, using the traditional paper pencil method (PAPI). The information obtained was useful for the development of elemental criteria for machine tools capacity in Nigeria .The criteria identified were highlighted. The results were interpreted, analysed for the development of actual manpower, actual equipment, actual energy and actual raw materials in both design and fabrication using probability theory. These relevant criteria are critical parameters for developing the sector for optimum performance.
