But for experienced managers, that number is merely the tip of a financial iceberg.<\/p>\n

This is the most common and immediate hidden cost. A traditional, welded-frame fence is built on the premise of perfect information. When that information proves flawed\u2014a column is slightly misplaced, a floor level varies\u2014the system breaks.<\/p>\n

The Scenario:<\/b> A standard 6-foot panel arrives on-site for a project at a facility like \u201cAmerican Manufacturing Co.\u201d, but the available space, due to an unforeseen pipe, is only 5.5 feet.<\/p>\n
