What is manufacturing outsourcing?
Manufacturing outsourcing occurs in several different ways. First, a company can outsource the production of components, which are then assembled by the Purchaser at their own facility. Second, a company can outsource solely the assembly function of the final product while continuing to manufacture the component parts itself. Finally, a company can outsource both the component part manufacturing and assembly functions, essentially removing the management of the manufacturing function from the company.
