A good subcontractor is the way Bourque should go. The cost of design documentation, configuration control, capital equipment and facilities, trained operators, a fully approved quality system with trained inspectors for both material and product, material controls, purchasing, shipping, and a host of other disciplines all requiring DoD review and approval is a mountain that IMO is not realistic for a new startup. Companies are successful when they concentrate on what they do best.

There are ample opportunities for Bourque to outsource the production without the large capital investment. The company needs DoD qualified production in the short term. I don't think any of us want to see Bourque try to prove himself in building government approved factories. The shortest and lowest cost path to delivering product should be the prime goal. If I see Bourque trying to build factories then we are all in trouble.
