ECONOMIC PRICE ADJUSTMENT

Contract prices will be adjusted annually, at the time of renewal, to reflect increases or decreases in the cost of performance of the contract work. The adjustment will be based on changes in the Service Contract Act wage and fringe benefit requirements only. The percent of increase or decrease in these wage and fringe benefit costs will be the basis for adjusting the unit prices. The Contracting Officer will calculate the adjustment to the nearest 1/10 of one per cent and apply this percentage to the contract unit prices for the renewal period.
