Big factories have lots of parts. The companies who manufacture those parts send their process engineers to the factory site to make sure their companies parts are properly and effectively integrated into the whole that will eventually be a functioning factory. Parts made in Korea will be accompanied by Korean engineers, parts made in Brazil will be accompanied by Brazilian engineers, parts made in Germany by German engineers ... .

This is how global manufacturing works. Seems pretty obvious -- but apparently not to MAGA brained folks.
