As a collaborative venture SFS promotes and advocates screen facilities and services available in Scotland; provides data, research, and expertise to reports, research programmes, and case studies; liaises with government, parliament, and public bodies; and pitches for projects as a larger group, or small sub-groups.

SFS formalised as a consortium in 2012. Since then, SFS has become a focus point for its member companies and a strong voice in the wider industry.
