2 Better Faster Cheaper: Better Faster Cheaper

3 We have all met the guy who knows the price of everything but the value of nothing. Cheap: costing very little; relatively low in price; inexpensive Cost: the price paid to acquire, produce, accomplish, or maintain anything or an outlay or expenditure of money, time, labor Price: The sum or amount of money or its equivalent for which anything is bought, sold, or offered for sale Value: The worth of something in terms of the amount of other things for which it can be exchanged or in terms of some medium of exchange.

4 Price And Value: Buy Cheap Buy Twice It is unwise to pay too much for something but it is risky to pay too little. When you pay too much you could lose some money. When you pay too little you could lose everything, because the item you purchased was incapable of doing the job it was bought to perform. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot, it cannot be done.

5 Price And Value If you deal with the lowest bidder (or lowest price) it is a good idea to add a contingency for the risk you take. If you can afford to do that, it proves you had enough money to pay for something better in the first place. Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten.

13 How Re-treading Brings Better Partnerships With Customers And Benefits The Industry

14 How Re-treading Brings Better Partnerships With Customers And Benefits The Industry Adopting a Retread doctrine is good for fleets. Application based selling and tyre/casing management by the user (or his supplier) is a key element Objective is to prolong tyre life by extracting the value engineered within the product at conception. The result is reduced running cost (total cost of ownership) and reduced consumption of raw materials, better green credentials. As the basic raw material for retread is the casing, there should be a good link between new tyre makers and the retreading community. Most re-treaders have direct relationships with the end user customer to harvest casings. An opportunity exists to influence the end user regarding which new tyre choices are appropriate for retread, sustaining the retreading business activity for the future.
