Degussa is very good, including process development side. I tend to think their "own" process would be better than the one they got from MCLS (and certainly cheaper in development costs - the world's most expensive way to develop a process is to outsource it to somebody like AMRI, and by extension, MCLS). Thus, for Degussa relationship with Medichem is more of a marketing advantage (customer sees a smooth transition from medicinal chemistry through kilo lab to the full scale production) rather than technological necessity. As long as there is a lot of excess cGMP production capacity for small molecules, fine chemical companies would enter whatever alliances it takes to fill it.
