Competitive Price Reports for GAF & Kentile
Enclosed are CPR's for Kentile and GAF and draft letters to their respective purchasing personnel. In order to attempt to retain any business at their Eastern plants, we must make at least token price concenssions. In summary, Kenti1 e-Brooklyn would pay $132/T for SG-103 and Kentile-Chicago $136/T. GAF-Vails Gate would pay $132 and GAF-Long Beach $136. If GAF's total purchases exceed 4500 tons, the Long Beach price would be $132/T for all tons in excess of 4500.
Our 1981 budget is based on the prices noted above, so no loss of dollars from budget would be experienced; but we could miss on budgeted tons and associated dollars if we fail to get the Eastern business.
I would appreciate your expeditious approval of the CPR's and any comments you have on the letters.

Mr. Andrew Kennedy, Director of Purchases for Kentlle Floors, Inc., has advised us that Canadian tile grade asbestos will be available for C$104/Ton F.O.B. Quebec, Canada in 1981. Carey Canadian, their present Canadian supplier, is actively pursuing this account, in order to maintain any business at this plant it will be necessary to partially meet' the competitive situation and lower our scheduled price from $136/Ton to $132/Ton. We may not get any orders even at this price because of the wide spread between our delivered cost and Carey's.
Subject to any change in schedule price.

|IN ACC OR O AN CC WITH POLICY AND PROCEDURE MANUAL SECTION 904, SUBJECT i0<.09|
We have been advised by Rose Ann Mun, GAF Corporate purchasing, that Canadian tile grade asbestos will be available in 1981 for C$98-105/Ton F.O.B. mine. In order to maintain any business at this plant it will be necessary to partially meet the competitive situation and lower our scheduled price from $136/Ton to $132/Ton. Even at this price we will not be price competitive because of the large difference in our delivered costs and that of Carey. As an inceBtive to achieve as much business as possible at Vails Gate, we will reduce the price for SG-103-7 to Long Beach from $136 to $132/Ton after the Vails Gate and Long Beach combined tonnage exceeds 4500 Tons in 1981.
