Subject: Request for Contract Price Increase for Contract Renewal Contract No. CTR064921, dated March 14, 2023

Ms. Ellington:

Please accept this letter as our request to extend Contract No. CTR064921 one (1) year with the same terms and conditions and in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Special Terms and Conditions included in the original contract. In addition, we would like to respectfully request a 3.9 percent hourly billing rate increase.

This request is based on the Employment Cost Index – September 2024, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. A copy of the report is attached to this letter and is also available at https://www.bls.gov/eci/. The Employment Cost Index (ECI) measures the change in the hourly labor cost to employers over time. The ECI uses a fixed “basket” of labor to produce a pure cost change, free from the effects of workers moving between occupations and industries, and includes both the cost of wages and salaries and the cost of benefits. The 3.9 percent hourly rate increase is based on the 12-month period ending September 2024.

Respectfully submitted, MEAD & HUNT, Inc.

TECHNICAL NOTE

The Employment Cost Index (ECI) measures the change in the cost of labor, free from the influence of employment shifts among occupations and industries. For information on survey concepts, coverage, methods, nonresponse adjustment, and imputation, see National Compensation Measures

Handbook of Methods at www.bls.gov/opub/hom/ncs/home.htm.

Sample size: Data for this reference period were collected from a probability sample of approximately 23,100 occupational observations selected from a sample of about 5,500 private industry establishments and approximately 7,400 occupational observations selected from a sample of about 1,400 state and local government establishments that provided data at the initial interview.

Standard errors: To assist users in ascertaining the reliability of ECI series, standard errors of all current quarter not seasonally adjusted 3- and 12-month percent change series are also available, see www.bls.gov/eci/factsheets/eci-standard-errors.htm and the database query tool at www.bls.gov/eci/data.htm. Standard errors provide users a measure of the precision of an estimate to ensure that it is within an acceptable range for their intended purpose.

Historical listings: Historical ECI data are available in (xlsx) format at www.bls.gov/eci/tables.htm.

The continuous occupational and industry series listing uses the Standard Industrial Classification

(SIC) Manual and Occupational Classification System (OCS) series from 1975 through 2005 and the

North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) and Standard Occupational Classification

(SOC) from 2006 to the present. It provides the official series deemed continuous after the change in classification systems. For more information on the criteria used in defining continuous series, see the article published in the Monthly Labor Review at www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2006/04/art2full.pdf. The transition from NAICS 2017 to NAICS 2022 occurred during the March 2024 ECI and series were determined to remain continuous.

Employer Costs for Employee Compensation data: The costs per hour worked of compensation components are published as part of the Employer Costs for Employee Compensation (ECEC) news release. The ECEC release dates are available at www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/ecec.htm.

Historical ECEC data are available in xlsx format at www.bls.gov/ecec/tables.htm. Since the ECEC is calculated with current employment weights rather than the fixed weights used in computing the ECI, year-to-year changes in the cost levels usually differ from those in the ECI.

Fixed employment weights: For additional information on the use of fixed employment weights in computing the ECI, see www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2016/article/introducing-2012-fixed-employment-weights-for-the-employment-cost-index.htm. Beginning with the December 2022 release, the ECI introduced new employment weights, see www.bls.gov/eci/notices/2022/eci-2021-fixed-weights-and-

2018-soc-update.htm.

Seasonal factors: Detailed information on seasonal factors for the 2024 reference year and the revisions of historical seasonally adjusted data for the most recent five years can be found at www.bls.gov/eci/factsheets/annual-seasonal-adjustment.htm. More information on seasonal adjustment can be found at www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2024/article/seasonality-in-the-employment-cost-index.htm.

Additional information: Historical tables are available in (xlsx) format for constant dollar, current dollar, and continuous series, see www.bls.gov/eci/tables.htm. ECI release dates are available on the release calendar at www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/eci.htm. Subscribe to receive the BLS
