| Managing Pricing During Supply-Chain Uncertainty |
| While
all metal formers face unique challenges in managing fast-rising
raw-material costs and gaining enough visibility into future orders to
plan production, those successfully doing so share a common strength:

pricing. For example, a recent industry conference featured a panel of
CFOs who advised manufacturers in the audience to create and adopt
indexes that explain price increases and require their vendors to do the
same. |
