Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode #219 – BrAInstorming
Q: How does Würth distinguish between strategic sourcing and purchasing?
Sourcing focuses on the long-term identification and evaluation of suppliers and opportunities for supplier improvements, while purchasing handles the tactical execution of orders, deliveries, and expediting.
Episode #224 - See? BAM!
Q: What should North American distributors focus on to prepare?
Educate suppliers, push for verifiable data, build supplier benchmarking, and consider default values where actual data isn't available, while planning sourcing strategies to mitigate higher costs.
Episode #224 - See? BAM!
Q: What is CBAM and why does it matter to North American fastener players?
CBAM is the EU's mechanism to price carbon embedded in imports, potentially raising costs for imported fasteners and creating a need for accurate emissions data from suppliers; it may ripple globally as regions consider similar approaches.
FTR Unthreaded: Another Throw With Jason Baines
Q: So then how did J. Lanfranco approach pricing?
They frontloaded as much US material as possible to create a six-month runway, then adjusted tariff surcharges gradually, sharing the burden with customers and maintaining service levels, which helped sustain revenues while tariffs persisted.
Special Report: Canada's 25%
Q: Will tariffs stay long-term, and how should the industry respond?
Tariffs are likely here to stay at some level; the industry should stay nimble, educate policymakers, advocate through organized efforts, and share best practices for pricing and supply chain resilience.
