ODM Company Designs – Manufacturers Manufacture – Copyright Disputes and Manufacturer’s AgreementManufacturer's Agreement • May 9th, 2015
ODM design companies often contract out some or all parts of product manufacturing process to manufacturers. Before manufacturing the products, ODM companies will pass the product concept and/or designs to the manufacturers to make copyright work (e.g. engineering drawings and molds). To avoid copyright disputes, ODM companies should request the manufacturers to sign an agreement (i.e. Manufacturer's Agreement) to confirm that the ODM company is the sole copyright owner of the product. In reality, there are some ODM companies which do not sign such agreement before engaging into the cooperation with the manufacturers.
