Speaking as one who has written up other people's backlog sites in the past, I would say that it is strongly preferable for post-ex to be led by the same team that led the excavation.
However, if you can't have the same team (or at least the person who was in charge on site), then you don't necessarily lose much by changing organisation.
My experience, though, is that when post-ex goes to a different organisation, or out to tender, it is often because of a dispute about the scope of work rather than the cost of an agreed scope. That opens a whole other can of worms...
