Brand owners increasingly rely on contract manufacturers, yet quality problems at an outsourced site quickly become the brand owner's problem. This course teaches how to set clear quality requirements, monitor outsourced production, and manage the relationship for consistent results. Delegates learn practical controls that both brand owners and contract manufacturers in Africa can use to protect quality across the arrangement.
