Outsource manufacturing is the latest trend to build and deliver products faster and cheaper, but these advantages can be lost if the product is not designed for outsourcing.
If not planned and executed carefully, outsourcing can be a disaster e.g., late deliveries, poor quality, unhappy customers, missed sales, high inventories, etc. Planned and executed well, outsourcing can be a competitive advantage ‘trump card’.
The decision to outsource is a strategic one, and must be well planned and executed.
Many OEM’s are moving in this direction in order to create more organizational focus on product and market strategies, to create a more variable cost structure, and to reduce their asset base. This workshop will help your engineers to understand the issues associated with outsourcing and to modify their designs appropriately. It will also help your project managers to modify the NPI process for outsourced products.
