Rush Premiums Quickie Survey Results, published by PMMI – The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, examines industry practices around expedited parts pricing based on a June 2020 quick survey of respondents and qualitative verbatim comments. The analysis indicates patterns across machinery-price segments and compares approaches to fee determination, with focus areas on pricing structures (including vendor expedite fees and percentage or flat-markup approaches), customer segmentation and contractual dynamics (such as relationship, volume and negotiation practices), and cost recovery and flexibility (from overtime and transportation pass-throughs to fee waivers when service falls short). Charts highlight cross-segment variation and emerging patterns that tend to favor case-by-case policies. The report reveals where engineering teams are prioritizing investments to strengthen operational resilience.
