- Optimize resources
Manufacturing partners that already have facilities, staff, equipment and supply chains in place can begin design, optimization, testing and manufacturing quickly. Likewise, larger outsourced manufacturing partners provide already built-in and scalable manufacturing infrastructure and an established supply chain to allow the OEM to avoid replication that could be costly and require 12 to 18 months of activity. - Reduce risk and improve continuity
A complex medical device may call for hundreds of components and materials, each with specific requirements, associated standards and applicable regulations. In particular, the environmental movement has added requirements for reduction of hazardous materials and specific guidelines for disassembly, recycling, and disposal. In contrast, large, global design, and manufacturing services companies typically have robust supply chains that they qualify, strictly monitor and proactively manage on an ongoing basis. Leveraging its partner’s vertical integration helps the OEM streamline production. Further, thanks to high purchase volumes, economies of scale and global scope, an OEM’s partner can often drive down costs and optimize supply chain management more effectively than the OEM itself. - Lower total cost of ownership
Transferring a product line to an outsource manufacturing partner not only provides the opportunity for seamless extension of your in-house manufacturing capabilities, but also transfers direct and indirect costs to produce a product to your external partner. This increases the flexibility helps you avoid the need to scale facilities and staff up and down, making it easier to balance priorities.
