The impact of contracting on quality transformation in R&D

Article Abstract:

The American Society for Quality and National Science Foundation are conducting a study on the effects of outsourcing on quality in research and development. Initial results show that the management of outsourced functions requires leadership, vision, communication and cooperation between companies and contractors. Managers are also faced with the added challenge of dealing with the legal and policy issues associated with outsourcing.
