Hey tigger, not to fuel the fire, but I have worked in production before as well.
Worked for IMAR, the company that made Sugar Sand Jet boats and Gekko tow boats.

When a new design was made, we R&D'd everything (except the engine and drive system) in house, and then sent it off to a supplier to be mass produced. The engines we just spec'd out to a vendor (Mercury) what we wanted, and they gave us options after that.

Not all built in house... but designed. and that's where the R&D costs come in.
