Valentine..You are confusing assistance given to Erfurt by DWM with a return obligation to DWM by Erfurt. There can be no doubt that DWM assisted Erfurt with tooling setup , design blueprints and technical help with the effort to set up a Luger manufacturing line. Once this took place however there was no evident obligation on Erfurts part to supply anything to DWM. Erfurt manufactured Lugers to supply the German Army.
A contract implies you have an obligation and I suspect the only obligation Erfurt had was to pay DWM a royalty on every Luger produced so I guess you COULD say they were "under contract" to pay but not to provide Lugers to DWM.

Erfurt did certainly have their own standards and they were not as high as the private Co, DWM.
