福特公司ABC成本培训资料内容摘要：
GRIMM - Cost Optimization’s Database
 Global Rates and Information of Machines and Materials.  Used to accumulate & calculate manufacturing labor & overhead (burden) rates.
 Activity Based Cost System
 Identifies the uniqueness of each product’s processing method to determine overhead allocation, and applies the cost based on the major elements (Cost Drivers).
 Consistent and fair method to compensate suppliers for product cost.  Machine’s operating cost will remain consistent regardless of  manufacturer.
Confidentiality
 Good judgment should be maintained when discussing equipment cost between  competitive manufactures. Many machine builders request a non-disclosure agreement.
 Sensitive material should only be shared with the supplier for comparison information. Not a “one-sided” sharing process.
GRIMM Equipment Representation;
Currently the database represents over 400 equipment manufacturers, and approximately 1600 machines, 2300 raw materials, & 2900 SBOC’s. (Standard Bought Out Components)
New technologies are being studied and continually added to the database.
This system is shared globally, compiling data from 9 countries/regions
 United States, Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Mexico; Domestic and Maquiladora, Spain, and Portugual.
Machines and Materials are updated annually. Raw material suppliers are contacted every year, and the new cost is entered into the system. Machine manufactures are contacted on a three year cycle. During the preceding two years, the PPI (Purchased Price Index, supplied by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) is utilized to update cost on an annual basis. The PPI method of updating has proved to be very accurate, within  1/2% of the new quotes from the manufacturers.
DIRECT LABOR
Labor specifically identified with a  value-added step in the manufacturing process. Each year, during an economic adjustment, information is gathered from the following resources. Rates are developed based on the average wage in the commodity. This includes union and non-union shops, and all regions in the targeted country. They are not intended to reflect any one particular supplier, but are intended to cover the range of labor cost paid by efficient suppliers.
