Demonstrating our secret sauce
Raw material procurement optimization is where you get the biggest bang for every dollar.
Assuming a $2 US/lb Finished Goods Cost where 90% ($1.80 US/lb) is raw materials and 10% ($0.20 US/lb) is conversion:
A 5% improvement in raw material cost yields a 4.5% improvement in finished goods cost
Whereas a 5% improvement in conversion cost yields a 0.5% improvement in finished goods cost
