If you deal with copper, gold, platinum, oil, various chemicals, etc, your sourcing department should have "adder contracts". What that amounts to is that the customer, ( u ) pay a set price for a length of time for manufacturing costs of the supplier, and pay at a preset percentage on increase from legally accept forums for any increase in the adders, such as the COMEX for copper. Many suppliers will use an increase in labor, taxes, transportation, external country turmoil, etc. increase in crude or any other reason to raise prices. Your sourcing department missed the boat if you do not have adder contracts. You can reach me in private at this email if you want more data. Dennis Guy Vaillant
