UPDATE: We have now added an Aluminum Global Market Outlook to this webinar. Using data from MetalMiner's aluminum price index--and building off of the hugely popular monthly MMI(R) reports--MetalMiner managing editor Lisa Reisman will provide analysis and commentary around the key drivers of aluminum prices. This outlook will also examine potential buying strategies based upon aluminum trends and forecasts.

Designed for aluminum buyers in the medical device, defense, general industrial, transportation and residential construction industries along with machinists and fabricators that work predominately in aluminum, this webinar will explore how companies can achieve cost reduction (without a loss in quality or product performance) through the use of custom mill product offerings.

Sound counter-intuitive to everything you've learned in procurement and sourcing?

Perhaps, but by taking total cost of ownership into account, buying organizations that make use of specialized mill product offerings including custom shapes can reduce costs through: scrap reduction, increased through-put and reduced labor. Specific case study examples will examine the benefits of some of these products both qualitatively and quantitatively.

This one hour webinar will feature guest speakers from:

Kaiser Aluminum
Sapa Group
Webinar sponsor, IMS

Lisa Reisman, Managing Editor of MetalMiner will moderate the webinar and host what promises to be a lively Q&A discussion amongst panel participants.
