Contract Manufacturing: Avoiding Pitfalls and Gaining Competitive Advantage

This webcast discusses six common pitfalls that can compromise outsourcing success and steps your company can take to avoid them.

In the current economic climate, more companies are turning to contract manufacturers to reduce costs and extend their reach to new markets and customers. Contract manufacturers can instantly expand a manufacturer’s expertise and capacity, but there are still risks and challenges to consider.

According to Greg Gorbach of ARC Advisory Group, “Companies that outsource portions of their manufacturing often need to have the same — or better — visibility into production as they would need if they did the manufacturing themselves.” By definition, outsourcing means giving up at least some control of the manufacturing process. This 30 minute complimentary webcast discusses pitfalls that your company can avoid when working with contract manufacturers.
