Episode 39 of The Manufacturing Economy with Fexingo visits a mid-sized auto parts plant in northern Indiana that, starting in 2024, began vertically integrating its most critical component: the high-precision steel tubing used in brake lines. Facing a 400 percent price spike from foreign suppliers and lead times stretching to 26 weeks, the factory's owners invested $4.2 million in a dedicated tube mill and draw bench. Lucas and Luna walk through the numbers: how the payback period came in at 14 months, how scrap rates dropped from 8 percent to under 1 percent, and how the plant now sells surplus tubing to competitors. The episode drills into a single question: when does it make financial sense to build rather than buy? The answer involves a specific break-even formula, a frank discussion of risk, and a look at what happens when a factory becomes its own supplier. #SupplyChain #VerticallyIntegrate #AutoParts #SteelTubing #BrakeLines #Indiana #Manufacturing #ShoringUp #BuildVsBuy #IndustrialInvestment #Reshoring #BreakEven #ScrapRate #LeadTime #IndependentFactory #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
