Russian term or phrase: кратное масштабирование

I'm having difficulty what is meant by this term. So far I can see that it means some type of divisible scaling or downsizing but I'm not sure as this doesn't make sense in this context.

The context:
К концу 2015 года наша компания будет структурированным, устойчивым бизнесом, который готов к воспроизводству услуг и **кратному масштабированию**.

Thanks in advance!

No, by (x) I mean that what's in-between the parentheses is optional (in this case - the hyphen; but if you prefer to do without it, please, don't forget about the 'space' in-between). :-)

P.S. Не сочтите, пожалуйста, за 'поучение' - я просто делюсь с коллегами своим опытом работы с различными 'заказчиками' ('прямыми' и 'ПА'), иногда удачным, иногда неудачным (как для меня, так и для них). :-)

Rachel Douglas: Can't think of what the right adjective is, if there is one, but I don't think it's "multiple". Your searches returned "multiple" modifying the word after "scaling up" (I would say "scale-up"), and it does not mean "кратной", simply "more than 1".

fazil: It seems to be a calque of the expression "scale up your business", hence there's no need for an adjective.

scale up many times over (manyfold)

Explanation:
That is, "кратной" denotes "many times over", except "кратной" is an adjective and the English phrase is adverbial, so it's difficult to translate when you need it to modify a noun, if you see what I mean.

You could substitute "manyfold", though I've never found it a very amiable word. I do see examples like this: "Just searching for a mid sized IT Company in India that can scale up manyfold like what Infosys did in late 1990s..could be a few out there." - but that is a tweet from a gentleman in India, which to me sounds more like Indian English than AE.

Well, but a solution could be to change your nouns "воспроизводство" and "масштабировение" into verbs, and then it would work nicely:

"... and to scale up many times over".
