so, your company and your client were about to form a contract... when a company you were going to sub-contract for the deal decided to bypass you and cut their own deal, knowing full well you were going to form a contract with the client?
well, from the very little i know about business law... i'm pretty sure that your sub-contracting manufacturer is in breach of some UCC laws and could be sued by your company. obviously, you don't want to create any bad blood if you work with them a lot, but you could definately use this as leverage to win back some more of your contract. considering your company sounds pretty large, i assume they have their own team of lawyers? go talk to one of them and ask for some advice.
