Subcontracting in Catalonia
 
Catalan Trends of the Subcontracting Industry
  • A growing entrepreneurial commitment to "total quality management” both by the main contractor and the subcontractor, and often jointly.
  • Increasing amount of information and technology is exchanged between the subcontractors and the main contractors and among subcontractors themselves, thus the rate of innovation has speeded up.
  • Subcontractors are involved from the early stages of product design.
  • Delivery time is reduced (“just-in-time”).
  • More services are delivered with the product.
  • Reduction of production defects and lead-time is a must, and cost reduction.
  • An increased trend towards the formation of industrial clusters, or groups of firms, which rely on the same or complementary business.
  • A reduced number of suppliers to each main contractor. Subcontracting systems are increasingly based on a pyramidal structure where the main contractors rely on a small number of first tier subcontractors, who in turn rely on a large number of second and third tier subcontractors.
  • An ever increasing search for long lasting reliable partners. They both rely and are loyal to each other, and the only danger remaining is the fluctuation in business activity.

One of the main objectives of the Industrial Subcontracting Exchanges of the Catalan Chambers of Commerce is to promote Catalan companies that are dedicated to industrial subcontracting and forming commercial relations with client or buying companies.
To achieve these objectives, the Industrial Subcontracting Exchanges manage various business directories to publicize the offer of the Catalan subcontracting industry.
