The two principal producers of PMIs are Markit Group, which conducts PMIs for over 30 countries worldwide, and the Institute for Supply Management (ISM), which conducts PMIs for the US. Markit Group and the Institute for Supply Management separately compile The Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) surveys on a monthly basis by polling businesses that represent the makeup of the respective sector. The surveys cover private sector companies, but not the public sector. The current Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) survey can be found under "ISM Reports On Business" on the ISM home page, or directly on this page. The Institute for Supply Management (ISM) in Tempe, Arizona, began to produce the report for the US in 1948. The Chicago-PMI survey registers manufacturing and non-manufacturing activity in the Chicago region.

You can easily use the technique to create your own unique designs. Then when you're finished reading this tutorial, you can cross over to our sister site NETTUTS and follow along as we build the design into clean and simple HTML. OK let's rock'n'roll! The End Design It's quite an elegant design, which would probably suit a designer portfolio-type site, but really could be altered for all sorts of purposes. The real power of this design is to show you what can be accomplished by keeping it simple. It's a simple structure: horizontal menu, main heading panel, and content area. Step 1 First of all, create a new document. Now our first task is to create a nice abstract background.
