Common use of Price Adjustments Clause in Contracts

Price Adjustments. Prices shall be firm against increase for 24 months from the original effective date of contract. Requests for increase/decrease may be submitted to the State if there has been, or is, a documented change in cost, with the State reserving the right to accept or reject requests within thirty (30) days after receipt of request. Price increases may be requested by the Contractor one (1) time per year, on the contract anniversary date, (following the 24-month price freeze) by using the Producer Price Index (PPI) for Industry: ―Data Management and Storage, Information Transformation and other Services‖, as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The rate adjustments will be based on the PPI (Series ID PCU5182105182104). The Contractor may offer price reductions at any time and the State may request a reduction in price any time the PPI shows de-escalation in costs. The last published non-preliminary Producer Price Index for the month prior to the award/anniversary date of the contract will be the reference date for the beginning (old) PPI Index. The most recent published Producer Price Index prior to the contract year to be priced will establish the reference data for the New PPI Index. All requests for price adjustments must be substantiated by manufacturer's certification of cost or other documentation and approved by the State of Florida‘ Contract Administrator prior to implementation. There can only be one rate increase adjustment per twelve (12) month period and the maximum net rate percentage increase per twelve (12) month period shall not exceed the PPI allowable amount or 3%, whichever is less. The price escalation/de-escalation formula will be tied to the change in the commodity for Data Management and Storage, PPI Series ID PCU5182105182104. The formula is calculated by dividing the New PPI Index by the Old PPI Index to identify the Price Escalation Rate. The Old Price is multiplied by the Price De-escalation/Escalation Rate to determine if a price reduction or increase is warranted. This formula applies after Year 2 of the contract and on each subsequent anniversary of the contract effective date.

All indexes are subject to revision four months after original publication. Example: Index at one year anniversary 104.3 Divided by index at time base price was set 105.5 Equals (De-Escalation Rate) 0.9886 To determine the new discount percent: New PPI / Old PPI = Price Escalation/De-escalation Rate (rounded to the four decimal points). Then take Old Price Discount % / Price Escalation/De-escalation Rate = New Price Discount % (rounded to two decimal points). Calculation: 104.3 ÷ 105.5 = .9886 (which equates to a Price De-escalation Rate of 99%) 25% ÷ 99.00% = 25.25% (New Price Discount Percent) Any increases/decreases approved during the term of the contract shall become effective no later than thirty (30) days after approval of the request. The Department may, in its sole discretion, make an equitable adjustment in the Contract terms and/or pricing if pricing or availability of supply is affected by extreme and unforeseen volatility in the marketplace, that is, by circumstances that satisfy all of the following criteria: (1) the volatility is due to causes wholly beyond the Contractor‘s control, (2) the volatility affects the marketplace or industry, not just the particular Contract source of supply, (3) the effect on pricing or availability of supply is substantial, and (4) the volatility so affects the Contractor that continued performance of the Contract would result in a substantial loss.

Price Adjustments. Prices shall may not be firm against increase for 24 adjusted during the initial term of the Contract. For the renewal term of the Contract, the prices will be the renewal term prices specified on the Price Sheet(s); however, the renewal term prices may be adjusted no earlier than twelve months from after the original start date of the renewal term and, thereafter, or no earlier than twelve months after the effective date of contract. Requests for increase/decrease may be submitted to the State if there has been, or is, a documented change in cost, with the State reserving the right to accept or reject requests within thirty (30) days after receipt of requestprevious price adjustment. Price increases may must be requested supported by the Contractor one (1) time per year, on the contract anniversary date, (following the 24-month price freeze) by using a change in the Producer Price Index (PPI) for Industry: ―Data Management and Storage, Information Transformation and other Services‖, as the Series ID shown in the table below.

Series ID Product XXX00000000000000 Nonresidential cleaning services The rate adjustments will change in PPI for the first price adjustment after the start date of the renewal term shall be based determined using the PPI for the month in which the renewal term began and the latest available non-preliminary PPI at the time of the price adjustment request (a preliminary PPI is indicated on the PPI BLS website with a “(Series ID PCU5182105182104P)” notation). The Contractor may offer change in PPI for second and subsequent price reductions at any time adjustments shall be determined using the latest PPI that was used to support the previous price adjustment and the State may request a reduction in price any time the PPI shows de-escalation in costs. The last published latest available non-preliminary Producer Price Index for PPI at the month prior to the award/anniversary date time of the contract will be request. When requesting a price increase, the reference date for the beginning (old) PPI Index. The most recent published Producer Price Index prior Contractor shall submit a written justification to the contract year to be priced will establish manager detailing the reference data reason(s) for the New request; an increase in the PPI Indexis not sufficient justification for a price increase by itself. All requests for price adjustments must be substantiated by manufacturer's certification of cost or other documentation and approved by the State of Florida‘ Contract Administrator prior to implementation. There can only be one rate increase adjustment per twelve (12) month period and the maximum net rate percentage increase per twelve (12) month period Price increases shall not exceed the percent change in PPI allowable amount or 3%three percent, whichever is less. The percent change in PPI shall be calculated using the following formula: (𝐵 − 𝐴) 𝐴 = 𝑍 Where: A = earliest PPI (PPI at the time the renewal term began or previous price escalation/deadjustment) B = latest PPI (latest available non-escalation formula preliminary PPI at the time of price adjustment request) Z = percent change in PPI The Department reserves the exclusive right to approve or deny any price adjustment request. Price adjustments will not be tied considered for any Contractor with any contractual non-performance issues including, but not limited to, outstanding fees or monies due under this Contract or overdue reports or documentation including, but not limited to, a Quarterly Sales Report or an MFMP Transaction Fee Report. A price adjustment does not constitute a change to the change Contract requiring an amendment executed by both Parties. After the Department approves a price adjustment in a written communication to the commodity for Data Management and StorageContractor, PPI Series ID PCU5182105182104it will incorporate the price adjustment onto the Price Sheet(s) listed on the State Purchasing Contract website. Price adjustments may not be applied retroactively. The formula is calculated by dividing Department reserves the New PPI Index by the Old PPI Index right to identify the Price Escalation Rate. The Old Price is multiplied by the Price De-escalation/Escalation Rate to determine if a request price reduction or increase is warranted. This formula applies after Year 2 of the contract and on each subsequent anniversary of the contract effective date.

Price adjustments using the CPI involve changing the base payment by extreme and unforeseen volatility the percent change in the marketplace, that is, by circumstances that satisfy all level of the following criteriaCPI for the current year compared to the previous year. This is calculated by first determining the index point change between the two readings and then the percent change. The price adjustment shall be calculated as follows: Take the CPI value for the 3rd month prior to the current anniversary date and subtract the CPI value for the 3rd month prior to the previous anniversary date (115 months prior to the current anniversary date) [e.g.: If OGS approved the volatility is due to causes wholly beyond first contract award in December, take the Contractor‘s control, (2) the volatility affects the marketplace or industry, not just the particular Contract source of supply, (3) the effect on pricing or availability of supply is substantial, and (4) the volatility so affects the Contractor that continued performance September CPI value of the current year and subtract the September CPI value of the previous year]. That sum is then divided by the previous period CPI value and this result is then multiplied by 100 to equal the percent change which is the price adjustment value.

Price Adjustments. This is a thirty-six (36) month contract. OCA/Purchasing will monitor market conditions for the copier paper industry using market publications, trade journals and other pertinent sources relating to copier paper products, in particular, US Department of Labor—Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) Commodity Index data for “Pulp, Paper, and Allied Products”. The Contractor’s prices for the various paper items at the outset of the contract and each anniversary date thereafter will serve as the “benchmark” prices for the upcoming contract year. Contract Prices shall may not be firm against increase for 24 months from escalated after any one-year period by more than 3.0% above the original effective Contractor’s yearly benchmark price. There is no limit to the percentage that prices may be de- escalated over this three-year period. Contractor’s Prices may be increased after the first year anniversary date of the contract. Requests Approval of price increases for increasethis contract will be allowed subject to OCA/decrease may Purchasing’s review of properly documented mill price increases to the Contractor that are verified by both BLS and industry data. Any annual requests for price increases must be submitted in writing to the State if there has been, or is, Purchaser and must include official mill price information. This contract allows for decreases in the Contractor’s copier paper mill prices to be passed along to the City at any time during the term of this contract. Contractor will apprise the Purchaser of SPECIAL CONDITIONS any price decreases that the City is allowed as a documented change result of paper market pricing changes reported in cost, with the State reserving BLS Commodity Index. Thirty (30) days after the right to accept or reject requests within anniversary date of the first year of the contract and thirty (30) days after receipt of request. Price increases may be requested by the Contractor one (1) time per year, on the contract each subsequent anniversary date, (following the 24-month awarded contractor(s) shall provide the City with mill price freeze) by using documentation, indicating the Producer Price Index (PPI) for Industry: ―Data Management and Storage, Information Transformation and other Services‖, base price as published by of the U.S. Bureau date of Labor Statistics. The rate adjustments will be based on the PPI (Series ID PCU5182105182104). The Contractor may offer price reductions at any time award of this contract and the State may request a reduction in price any time the PPI shows de-escalation in costs. The last published non-preliminary Producer Price Index for the month prior most current adjustment to the award/anniversary date of the contract will be the reference date for the beginning (old) PPI Index. The most recent published Producer Price Index prior to the contract year to be priced will establish the reference data for the New PPI Index. All requests for price adjustments must be substantiated by manufacturer's certification of cost or other documentation and approved by the State of Florida‘ Contract Administrator prior to implementation. There can only be one rate increase adjustment per twelve (12) month period and the maximum net rate percentage increase per twelve (12) month period shall not exceed the PPI allowable amount or 3%, whichever is less. The price escalation/de-escalation formula will be tied to the change in the commodity for Data Management and Storage, PPI Series ID PCU5182105182104. The formula is calculated by dividing the New PPI Index by the Old PPI Index to identify the Price Escalation Rate. The Old Price is multiplied by the Price De-escalation/Escalation Rate to determine if a price reduction or increase is warranted. This formula applies after Year 2 of the contract and on each subsequent anniversary of the contract effective date.

The price adjustment shall be calculated as follows: Take the CPI value for the 3rd month prior to the current anniversary date and subtract the CPI value for the 3rd month prior to the previous anniversary date (115 months prior to the current anniversary date) [e.g.: If OGS approved the volatility is due to causes wholly beyond first contract award in December, take the Contractor‘s control, (2) the volatility affects the marketplace or industry, not just the particular Contract source of supply, (3) the effect on pricing or availability of supply is substantial, and (4) the volatility so affects the Contractor that continued performance September CPI value of the current year and subtract the September CPI value of the previous year]. That sum is then divided by the previous period CPI value and this result is then multiplied by 100 to equal the percent change which is the price adjustment value. This percentage change (increase or decrease) shall be applied to the next Contract would result in year, upon release of a substantial lossContract Addendum from OGS Procurement Services. The following example illustrates the computation of percent change for a hypothetical April 2004 anniversary calculation: CPI FOR CURRENT PERIOD (JANUARY 2004) 185.2 LESS CPI FOR PREVIOUS PERIOD (JANUARY 2003) 181.7 EQUALS INDEX POINT CHANGE 3.5 DIVIDED BY PREVIOUS PERIOD CPI 181.7 EQUALS 0.0192 RESULT MULTIPLIED BY 100 0.019 X 100 EQUALS PERCENT CHANGE 1.9% .

Price Adjustments. Prices shall be firm against increase for 24 twelve (12) months from the original effective date of contractcontract and no more than one (1) time per calendar year. Requests After this period, requests for increase/increase or decrease may be submitted to the State if there has been, or is, a documented change increase in cost, with the State reserving the right to accept or reject requests request within thirty (30) days after receipt of request. Price increases increase or decrease may be requested by the Contractor either party one (1) time per year, on the contract anniversary date, (following the 24-month price freeze) year by using the Producer Price Index (PPI) for Industry: ―Data Management Other Commercial and StorageService Industry Machinery Manufacturers, Information Transformation Mailing, Letter handling and other Services‖addressing machines, except parts and attachments as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The rate adjustments will be based on the PPI (Series ID PCU5182105182104PCU3333183333183A). The Contractor may offer price reductions at any time and the State may request a reduction in price any time the PPI shows de-escalation in costs. The last published non-preliminary Producer Price Index (PPI) for the month prior to the award/anniversary date of the contract will be the reference date for the beginning (old) PPI IndexPPI. The most recent published Producer Price Index prior to the contract year to be priced will establish the reference data for the New PPI Index. All requests for price adjustments must be substantiated by manufacturer's certification of cost or other documentation and approved by the State of Florida‘ Contract Administrator prior to implementation. There can only be one rate increase adjustment per twelve (12) month period and the maximum net rate percentage increase per twelve (12) month period shall not exceed the PPI allowable amount or 3%, whichever is lessPPI. The price escalation/escalation / de-escalation formula will be tied to the change in the commodity for Data Management Other Commercial and StorageService Industry Machinery Manufacturers, Mailing, Letter handling, and addressing machines, except parts and attachments, PPI Series ID PCU5182105182104. The PCU3333183333183A.The formula is calculated by dividing the New PPI Index by the Old PPI Index to identify the Price Escalation Rate. The Old Price is multiplied by the Price De-escalation/Escalation Rate to determine if a price reduction or increase is warrantedthe New Price. This formula applies after Year 2 1 of the contract and on each subsequent anniversary of the contract effective date.

All indexes are subject to revision four months after original publication. Example: Index at one year anniversary 104.3 Divided by index at time base price was set 105.5 Equals (De-Escalation Rate) 0.9886 To determine the new discount percent: New PPI / Old PPI = Price Escalation/De-escalation Rate (rounded to the four decimal points). Then take Old Price Discount % / Price Escalation/De-escalation Rate = New Price Discount % (rounded to two decimal points). Calculation: 104.3 ÷ 105.5 = .9886 (which equates to a Price De-escalation Rate of 99%) 25% ÷ 99.00% = 25.25% (New Price Discount Percent) Any increases/decreases approved during the term of the contract shall become effective no later than thirty (30) days after approval of the request. The Department may, in its sole discretion, make an equitable adjustment in the Contract terms and/or pricing if pricing or availability of supply is affected by extreme and unforeseen volatility in the marketplace, that is, by circumstances that satisfy all of the following criteria: (1) the volatility is due to causes wholly beyond the Contractor‘s control, (2) the volatility affects the marketplace or industry, not just the particular Contract source of supply, (3) the effect on pricing or availability of supply is substantial, and (4) the volatility so affects the Contractor that continued performance of the Contract would result in a substantial loss.:
