The headline figure, known as the Purchasing Managers’ Index™ (PMI), is a weighted composite of five key components: New Orders (30%), Output (25%), Employment (20%), Suppliers’ Delivery Times (15%), and Stocks of Purchases (10%). To ensure consistency in directional movement, the Suppliers’ Delivery Times Index is inverted when incorporated into the overall PMI.
