scale up
Increase in size
Scale up means to increase in size, scope, or capacity.
A business scales up by expanding operations; a recipe scales up when you double the ingredients.
The phrase implies proportional growth—maintaining the same structure or approach while making it bigger: We need to scale up production to meet demand.
Compare scale down.
