Market Sectors

Materials companies feel a price change in the same week their customer does. Chemicals, packaging, cement, and metal fabrication do not get to manage from last quarter's average. The operating review has to see cost, quality, and the second source before a disruption becomes a letter from the customer.

Governance work here is often about who can change a specification or a supplier, and which of those changes the board must hear about before they are done.
