Construction Price Indices Monitoring Report

Contractors are frequently exposed to fluctuations in material prices and are at a financial risk when appropriate provision for escalation in material prices is not made. It is for this reason that the Contract Price Adjustments Provision (CPAP) indices are compiled for the use by contractors, who require a simple and agreed escalation formula to provide reasonable reimbursements for price fluctuation. The purpose of this report is to provide our subscribers with a detailed analysis of what is driving the CPAP workgroups and hence their cost and how to make appropriate provision for price adjustments in their contracts.
