18 Contract Price Adjustment Steps using BLS index data BLS Guides Available at 18 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
19 Contracting Scenario You are a public procurement office who regularly buys individually bagged snack foods from a supplier to be sold to students in public schools. 19 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
20 Start by Listing the Input Costs of the Supplier Choose an index or indexes representing the costs for providing a particular product or service, rather than an index for the product itself. e.g. If contracting for purchases of potato chips, it would be advisable to tie the escalation clause to a PPI for potatoes rather than the finished snacks. Research Inputs: Ask the supplier Look up industry input data from Census.gov BEA input-output table: Use of commodities by industry valued at producers prices Browse trade publications Web search 20 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
21 Food inputs 20% Packaging 15% Energy 15% Labor 50% Contracting Scenario: Supplier s Inputs In which index would you start to look for each of these? 21 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov

25 PPI s Data Seeker s Guide U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
26 PITFALLS TO AVOID WHEN CHOOSING DATA Avoid using All Commodities, Industrial Commodities, or other highly aggregated PPIs Use FD-ID PPIs instead for tracking general inflation Avoid using seasonally adjusted indexes Do not use trade (retailer or wholesaler) indexes in place of product PPIs e.g. A PPI for electronics stores is not a substitute for a computers PPI 26 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
27 Food inputs 20% Contracting Scenario: Supplier s Inputs WPUID61111 Intermediate Demand - Materials for food manufacturing Packaging 15% WPU Coated and laminated single and multi-web film Energy 15% WPU0543 Industrial electric power Labor 50% 27 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov 27

33 Risk Assessment Using Historical Data 33 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
34 Write a Price Adjustment Clause using Index Data Base terms Index specifications Calculation method Exceptions and caveats 34 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
35 Write the Base Terms for the Contract Price Adjustment The base selling price for a pallet of 1,000 1oz bags of snacks is set at $ as of December 2013, to remain in effect for 1 year. December 2013 is hereafter called the reference base period. The base selling price shall be adjusted on March 1st of each subsequent year, based upon the percent changes (whether up or down) in the indexes described below, between the reference base period and December of the most recent year. All calculations for the index shall be based upon the latest version of data published as of February 20th each year. 35 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
36 How to Specify Index(es) and Source A specific index should be cited by referring to the Producer Price Index for followed by the exact title and code. Industry Data Example Industry: Scheduled passenger air transportation Product: Domestic Series ID: PCU Commodity Data Example Group: Fuels Item: Gasoline Series ID: WPU0571 For the most up-to-date data, including revisions, access the databases at For preliminary data, access the PPI Detailed Report at 36 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
37 Add Index Specifications to the Contract in the indexes described below, between the reference base period and December of the most recent year. All calculations for the index shall be based upon the latest version of data published as of February 20th each year. From the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics official database (data.bls.gov): LABOR: Employment Cost Index (ECI), Total Compensation for Private industry workers in Manufacturing, All workers, U.S. (CIU I) FOOD: Producer Price Index (PPI), Intermediate Demand Materials for food manufacturing (WPUID61111) PACKAGING: PPI for Coated and laminated single and multi-web film (WPU ) ENERGY: PPI for Industrial electric power (WPU0543) 37 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
38 Calculating a price adjustment using one index Escalation agreements using the PPI usually involve changing the contract s base price by the percent change in the level of the PPI between the reference base period and the time period of the price adjustment. Here is the basic formula using a single index: New price = Old price x (current period index/base period index) = $ x (203.1/199.7) = $ x = $ (this is also a 1.7% increase, although we didn t explicitly calculate it) 38 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
39 Calculating price adjustment by creating a composite index 39 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
40 Include an Example of Calculation Mechanics in the Contract ENERGY: PPI for Industrial electric power (WPU0543) 40 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
41 AVOID NOT ACCOUNTING FOR REVISIONS OR DATA ERRORS Current Revision Policies PPI CPI IPP ECI All data subject to revision 4 mo. after original publication Not revised Data subject to revision each of 3 mo. after original publication Solutions Not revised Set your base terms to wait for revised data before escalating Specify using the latest non-preliminary index data Recalculate upon the release of revision Only recalculate if the percentage change is a certain amount different Do nothing (If you always escalate from the base, you ll make up for it next adjustment) 41 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
42 AVOID NOT ACCOUNTING FOR MISSING/DISCONTINUED DATA An index may go out of publication for if we can t collect enough data to calculate a reliable estimate PPI re-samples to update the mix of products and services (currently 3x/year) indexes may be added, deleted, or recoded Solutions Allow for the use of the next higher aggregate index (if it makes sense) Allow a proxy index Replace the index with its re-code Compare the deleted code with new indexes available 42 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
43 Account for Exceptions and Caveats in the Contract Terms If an index is recoded, that is the replacement is a direct substitute according to the BLS, this contract will instead use the recode. If an index becomes unavailable the supplier may propose a proxy index prior to December 31. The buyer will approve or disapprove in 10 business days. If there is not direct substitute or a proxy index approved, the next higher aggregate index available will be used. 43 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
44 AVOID FORGETTING EVERYTHING UNTIL IT S TIME TO UPDATE PRICES By the time you revisit the contract, the PPI might have changed! Solutions Sign up for PPI Notices ( Try retrieving your index a couple times a year; if it becomes unavailable, check recent PPI Detailed Reports for resampling ( 44 U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS bls.gov
