Depending on the corporate structure as well as the QA/QC responsibilities and authorities, in-house production at times can be inferior compared to contract services due to less expertise in specific specialized production processes, usage of inferior ingredients leading to increased in testing costs, possibility of QA/QC decisions overridden by management in order to meet deadline. Another problem with in-house production is the operation logistics of sourcing and purchasing ingredients and equipments as well as validating production processes. This may be very time-consuming especially if the company has only a small crew in which most of them may be requried to train and learn the new processes. With contract services, one can specify requirements on contract; therefore, resulting in less of such problems.
