Company president:

Subcontracting manufacturing means losing some control over product quality.

We do subcontract some manufacturing.

We only subcontract with companies that have complete control over the quality of their products.

The president’s company loses some control over its product quality.

The company’s subcontractors do not lose any control over their product quality.

The company’s subcontractors do not subcontract their manufacturing.

Very strongly supported. Subcontracting manufacturing means losing some control over product quality. But the company’s subcontractors “maintain complete control over the quality of the products they supply.” So the subcontractors must not further subcontract their manufacturing.

Unsupported. Subcontracting manufacturing reduces control over product quality, but it doesn't necessarily mean lower quality. It also doesn’t mean that companies will be disappointed with the quality of products that have been manufactured by a subcontractor.

Anti-supported. Subcontracting manufacturing means losing some control over product quality. Since the company president subcontracts some manufacturing, he likely doesn’t insist on having as much control as possible over product quality.

Unsupported. Subcontracting manufacturing reduces control over product quality, but it doesn't necessarily mean lower quality. It also doesn’t mean that customers will question the quality of a product that has been manufactured by a subcontractor.

Unsupported. Subcontracting manufacturing reduces control over product quality, but it doesn't necessarily mean lower quality. Just because a product is made in-house doesn’t ensure that it will be of better quality.
