The outsourcing of mobile handset manufacture is a growing industry trend that sees traditionally shy outsourcers such as Nokia and LG looking to increase their reliance on contract manufacturers. In 2006, over 35% of all handset production is outsourced to contract manufacturers. As this market area develops, ensure you understand the implications of these dynamics by purchasing visiongain's second report on this topic.

Tier 1 OEMs are all outsourcing some part of handset production to contract manufacturers, with greater moves in this direction on their roadmap. This is driven by subscriber growth in emerging markets and increasing demand for low margin ultra low-cost handsets. The trend towards greater customisation will also have an impact upon the manufacturing side of the industry. OEMs need to re-assess their relationships with operators and become more accommodating in terms of cross branding and customisation, or risk losing market share. This report will tell you how you can better realign your strategy.

The report answers key questions, including:
  • The positioning of the main OEM players - what are their outsourcing strategies and what is their in-house manufacturing capability?
  • What kind of production capacity do contract manufacturers have? What sort of relationship do they enjoy with OEMs and mobile operators?

  • What are the recent major deals in this space?
  • What percentage of mobile phones shipped globally will be outsourced by 2011?
