CWICR Rate Updater

Business Case

Problem Statement

Resource rates become outdated:

• Material prices fluctuate with market
• Labor rates change annually
• Equipment costs vary by region
• Historical rates need adjustment

Solution

Systematic rate updates integrating market data, inflation indices, and regional factors while maintaining audit trail.

Business Value

• Accuracy - Current market pricing
• Flexibility - Update specific resources or categories
• Audit trail - Track rate changes over time
• Automation - Integrate with price APIs

Quick Start

# Load CWICR data
cwicr = pd.read_parquet("TR_workitems_costs_resources_DDC_CWICR.parquet")

# Initialize updater
updater = CWICRRateUpdater(cwicr)

# Apply 5% labor rate increase
result = updater.apply_percentage_adjustment(
    rate_type=RateType.LABOR,
    percentage=5.0,
    reason="2024 Annual Increase"
)

print(f"Updated {result.updated} labor rates")
print(f"Average adjustment: {result.summary.get('adjustment_percent')}%")

Common Use Cases

1. Inflation Adjustment

inflation_rates = {
    2020: 0.012, 2021: 0.047, 2022: 0.065, 2023: 0.034
}
result = updater.apply_inflation_index(
    base_year=2020,
    current_year=2024,
    inflation_rates=inflation_rates
)
print(f"Cumulative adjustment: {result.summary['total_adjustment_percent']}%")

2. Regional Factors

berlin_factors = {
    'labor': 1.15,
    'material': 0.95,
    'equipment': 1.05
}
result = updater.apply_regional_factors(berlin_factors)

3. Import External Prices

market_prices = pd.read_excel("current_prices.xlsx")
result = updater.import_external_rates(
    external_data=market_prices,
    code_column='item_code',
    rate_column='price',
    rate_type=RateType.MATERIAL
)

4. Export Audit Trail

updater.export_change_log("rate_changes_2024.xlsx")
