The [affected portion] of the Contract Price shall be adjusted using US PPI — Titanium and Titanium-Base Alloy Mill Shapes (BLS series WPU102505), published by BLS. Base Period: the index value published for August 2026 (or the month of contract signing, if different) is the Base Value. Adjustment: at each Adjustment Date, the Current Value is the most recently published three-month average of the index (the Averaging Window). The Escalation Factor equals Current Value divided by Base Value. Cap: the Escalation Factor applied under this clause shall not exceed 1.10 or fall below 0.90 (a 10% cap and floor) in any single Adjustment Date, regardless of the index's actual movement. [Replace bracketed terms with your contract's actual affected-portion definition and adjustment-date schedule before use. This is a drafting starting point, not legal advice.]

Use two formulas, not one. New aircraft can be indexed against a real government series, BLS PPI PCU336411336411. Spare parts have no matching series, so price them from a weighted input composite instead: engine parts, avionics, fasteners, and labor.
