Bottom Line and Beyond: A Recession is the Right Time to Take Advantage of Contract Manufacturers

Abstract

Contract manufacturing as a concept will be utilised increasingly during the 1990s and beyond. The use of this facility can make life a great deal easier for manufacturing engineering management, specially in recessionary periods. Savings in time, aggravation and, above all, costs, are vital. Anyone considering the setting‐up of a new business venture would be well recommended to consider the implementation of contract manufacturing – especially those businesses in the mechanical, electronic and electrical manufacturing industries.
