Frequently Asked Questions about contract manufacturing

What is Subcontracting?

Subcontracting involves outsourcing the production of components or products to an external manufacturer. This arrangement is beneficial for companies seeking to ensure high quality and production capacity without having to invest in their own manufacturing facilities.

What is Contract Manufacturing?

Contract manufacturing goes a step further than subcontracting and often involves the entire production chain—from development and design to assembly and logistics. The customer can entrust a larger part of the product development and manufacturing process to the manufacturer, creating a comprehensive, cost-effective, and flexible solution.

What is an OEM?

An OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) is the company that designs and sells a final product under its own brand but may use subcontractors and contract manufacturers to produce parts or the entire product. An OEM is often the client in relation to a contract manufacturer.
