SUBCONTRACTING PROCESS
In subcontracting process we provide raw material to subcontractor vendor, he processes the
material and he returns back to our company as a semi finished or finished material. We are paying
charges to subcontractor vendor
Example: We have one starter motor manufacturing company who manufactures the starter
motors company provides the raw materials like starter housing, armature, bushes, solenoid and
pinion bendex to subcontractor vendor. Subcontracting vendor processes and assembles the all
components and finally returns the Starter motor to our company
Types of subcontracting processes
1. Standard
2. Subcontracting with scrap
3. Subcontracting with subcontractor vendor
4. Subcontracting with under consumption & over consumption
Prerequisites for subcontracting process
