5 Signs You Should Consider Contract Manufacturing

1. Your Production Costs Are Too High

If your current production costs are eating into your profits, it might be time to consider contract manufacturing. Running in-house manufacturing facilities comes with a range of expenses. By having equipment and expertise to produce items efficiently in-house at DeWys, cost savings are passed along to customers throughout the manufacturing process.

2. You Lack the Capacity to Meet Demand

When demand exceeds production capacity, it can be challenging to keep up without investing heavily in new machinery and labor. As a contract manufacturer, DeWys provides the additional capacity needed without requiring a major upfront investment.

3. You Need to Speed Up Time to Market

Speed is critical in bringing new products to market, especially when you’re up against competitors. If you find that your internal processes are causing delays, contract manufacturing could help.

Contract manufacturing companies like DeWys are experts at efficiently scaling production, allowing you to reduce lead times and get your product into customers’ hands faster. Our experience and established processes can make a significant difference in how quickly you move from design to production.

4. You Lack Technical Expertise or Specialized Equipment

Some products require specialized knowledge or equipment that your current team doesn’t have. Instead of investing heavily in new equipment or hiring and training specialized staff, consider working with a contract manufacturer that already possesses the necessary technical expertise.

5. You Want to Focus on Core Competencies

By outsourcing production, you can concentrate on core activities that drive growth, while your manufacturing partner ensures that products are made efficiently and up to quality standards.
