Reliable coverage of reporting prices for 950+ global metal and mining price in support of Commission information requirements for this industry sector. Fastmarket is the only source identified that can meet the Commission's complete requirement. Market research did not identify another provider offering an equivalent combination of comprehensive global metals and mining price reporting, coverage of more than 950 metal and mining prices, industry analysis, and related market intelligence required by the Needs/Requirements Evaluation. |
| TextField1: Internet based research, other vendor product reviews & Commission industry experts. The NRE division staff continues to rely upon the FastMarkets subscription for its wide variety of minerals & metals prices, that are not otherwise available from |
other sources, for their ongoing import-injury, fact-finding, & self-initiated research. No peer equivalent has been identified that can satisfy the Government requirements in their entirety, making FastMarkets the only provider capable of meeting this need.
