- Does it consume other resources, such as engineering, that could be working on more productive tasks?
- How are future sales affected by a quality failure in the field?
Won’t it cost more to outsource than to do it internally?
- Do you have the proper equipment to machine the part internally?
- Do you have hazardous location UL listings?
- How is the quality with the internal process?
