CHANGING THE FORMULA Seeking Perfect Prices, CEO Tears Up the Rules By TIMOTHY AEPPEL, WSJ March 27, 2007; Page A1 http://online.wsj.com/article/sb117496231213149938.html (excerpt) CLEVELAND -- In early 2001, shortly after Donald Washkewicz took over as chief executive of Parker Hannifin Corp., he came to an unnerving conclusion. The big industrial-parts maker's pricing scheme was crazy. For as long as anyone at the 89-year-old company could recall, Parker used the same simple formula to determine prices of its 800,000 parts -- from heat-resistant seals for jet engines to steel valves that hoist buckets on cherry pickers. Company managers would calculate how much it cost to make and deliver each product and add a flat percentage on top, usually aiming for about 35%. * * * [M]uch of industrial America -- 60% of U.S. manufacturers still relies on oldfangled, "cost-plus" types of pricing methods such as the one Parker used. * * * In October 2001, Mr. Washkewicz unveiled his big plan, which involved creating a new senior position for pricing. By 2003, the business that makes industrial fittings, for example, had spent six months reviewing some 2,000 different items.the upshot: 28% of the parts, mostly metal fittings used in places like oil rigs and power plants, were priced too low. Overnight, Parker raised their prices anywhere from 3% to 60%, with the average increase about 5%. * * * The price increases were met with immediate protest. *** One of those customers is Richard Pedtke, president of the compact-vehicle division at Ingersoll-Rand Co., which uses a wide array of Parker hydraulic fittings and other components in its Bobcat miniature loaders and excavators. Mr. Pedtke says he first objected when one of Parker's new hydraulic fan motors cost much more than he expected. But when Bobcat's purchasing people sat down with Parker's sales team, Bobcat learned that the new motor replaced 11 separate parts in the company's existing machines. Moreover, the new design reduced leakage by eliminating hydraulic connections, was easier to install at Bobcat's factories, and opened up space inside the machines -- all of which saves Bobcat money. * * * "Once you start doing this, you never stop It's a different way of thinking that filters into everything." [Don Washkewicz, CEO].
