We come to the end of this series of four articles on mechanical subcontracting in Spain, with the fourth and final chapter entitled “What to do?”.

It is always the most complicated, as long as describing the past situations and the consequences thereof are more or less related to factual facts, while the part related to solutions is more subjective, and the “every master has his own trick”.

In any case, here are those that I propose, which are the result of my knowledge and experience in the matter and that of the people who have collaborated with me throughout this tetralogy.

I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I did writing it.

In this third article of the four that I am carrying out on the subject of mechanical subcontracting, I will outline the different types of contract between the contracting company and the subcontractor. At least, the most relevant ones.

It is very important to understand the way in which the two companies relate and how it affects the service that the latter provide to the former in order to understand the problems that currently exist in mechanical subcontracting, and above all to indicate the possible solutions to the problems generated, which is at the end of the day, the reason to be of this series of articles.

Second article of the four that I am carrying out on the topic of mechanical subcontracting, a topic that has touched me and I have to live closely during my experience in the industry.
In this chapter, I will outline the consequences of the attitudes and policies that I described in the first of the chapters. And I will analyze it from the social point of view, the contracting companies and the subcontractors, as well as the affected workers themselves.

This is the first article of the four that I am going to carry out on the topic of mechanical subcontracting, a topic that has touched me and I have to live closely during my experience in the industry. With the collaboration of an expert, I have prepared this series that tries to visualize the problem from all angles, especially that of the supplier and that of the customer. We will go through all the stages of this relationship and we will outline a problem that is little talked about, and from what the little that is said, most is done without knowledge, and that represents a problem for the industry that, far from being resolved, is increasing its severity as the years go by, without anyone appearing to be doing anything relevant. My idea with this series is to wake up the consciousness of the parties involved, to provide solutions and above all, to carry them out.

Third and last block dedicated to the Spanish industry, after the situation analysis and some feasible global solutions. Here I try to give a series of important keys at the local level of the company, of what is in our hands to be able to do, that allow us to get out of this situation, with a long-term vision, and without repeating past mistakes, which continue to burden us in our industrial recovery.

Second block dedicated to the Spanish industry, after the situation analysis. Here I try to give a series of important keys that allow us to get out of this situation, with a long-term vision, and without repeating past mistakes, which continue to weigh us down in our industrial recovery.

This is the first of three articles in which I will give my point of view on the situation of the industry in Spain in relation to the current situation, as well as a series of actions that, at a general and company level, it is convenient to adopt. A small contribution to the current confusing situation.
