Japanese term or phrase: 顧客との保証条件を調達先へ転嫁
I have come across this sentence in a document concerning the division of risks among different companies that make industrial machinery. I cannot provide much more context due to confidentiality, but am at a loss on how to render 保証条件を転嫁. Does this mean that the responsibility to provide warranty for a certain product is shifted to the suppliers (調達先)?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
