3 Inflation Price Adjustments
Feb, 12th 2016 Intro – Who am I? Why Am I talking today?, What will I cover?

4 What is Inflation Price Adjustments (IPA)?
Responsibilities Contract Language Working Together

5 What Is Inflation Price Adjustments?
Inflation Price Adjustment (IPA) is an adjustment to our financial terms based on normal inflationary pressures on prices. It may be calculated according to: An Economic Index, such as Consumer Price Index, All Urban Areas (CPI- U), CPI - Food Away From Home, Producer’s Price Index (PPI), Employment Cost Index (ECI), CPI-U is no longer the preferred index. All new contracts must have PPI or CPI – food way from home. A flat rate (e.g. 3%), Actual costs, Be strictly based upon negotiations between Sodexo and our Client (‘based upon mutual agreement’) If you are negotiating a new contract/amendment make sure the most recent boiler plate language is being used. Work with your Finance Team to decide before going to your client. Boiler plate language – CD&M

6 Responsibility At A Glance
Operations & Finance Review Notifications for upcoming increases; communicate as necessary with cost centers Communicate with the client in advance Tell O/A about any changes (upcoming amendments, anticipated waivers, etc.) Implement billing changes after receiving new rates from O/A (field billing) Negotiate terms of increases that are ‘by mutual agreement’ and get proper documentation for it Operations Accounting (O/A) Track the units with this language, track waivers and overrides Provide reporting and statistics quarterly to Finance Calculate Financial changes and impacts (no retail) Calculate Retro billings Implement billing changes (Buffalo Billings) Notify Field Billed cost centers of New Rates Provide support to the field side of the process Provide Notifications to DM level (or higher, depending on Division) of pending and past due increases

7 Notification Each Period, Operations Accounting sends out a notification file listing upcoming inflation increases This Excel file contains the dates increases are scheduled to happen, the rate type (if applicable), whether mutual agreement or the like is required, and so on. For DMs/RVPs: When you receive file share it with you team, so they can be begin to prepare to discuss the increase with the client. For GMs/Controllers: Ask your DM/RVP to alert you if your client(s) are on the notification file. Coming soon – alternatives to notification

8 Navigate Annual Increases
When the terms of the contract allow for an increase annually, we all need to strive to implement the increase each year. The IPA team will implement systemically unless other factors are involved in the process: For cost centers with wage language, we will use the Merit increase details from Human Resources. For cost centers requiring mutual agreement, we’re looking for an amendment or document of agreement. If an increase should not be done an approved waiver is required. CD&M’s involvement is to help increase awareness and compliance to our contract terms. We need to strive for Annual increases.

9 Understanding Where the IPA Data Comes From
Contract Language – spells out inflation index to use Human Resources– Merit data Economic Data File – On SodexoNet from Treasury, based on data from BLS - Search “Economic Data File” Spreadsheet with most common inflation index tables Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS)– – for less common Indexes O/A has historical records of these in case we need to look back on them. The Economic Data file also contains historical CPI data

10 Contract Language Example 1
2.4 Contract Price Adjustment. Commencing December 3, 2014, and annually thereafter, the Contract Price (excluding the component for Sodexo employee wages) shall be increased by at least the percentage increase in the Producer’s Price Index (PPI) for the prior twelve (12) month period. The adjustment for Sodexo employee wages shall be based on actual Sodexo performance rating increases. The Breakdown: No Mutual Agreement Language – will be done upon due date HR provides the merit increase data To determine Wage and Non-Wage Components of Contract Price, we refer to the contract to see if a breakdown of the contract price is provided If provided, we use the breakdown given in the contract If not provided, we determine the breakdown based on actual expenses from the last 12 periods For Example, if wages are 60% of total expenses, the contract price is assumed to be 60% wage, 40% non-wage Calculate Monthly/Period/Biweekly billing and update templates or send to field

11 Contract Language Example 2
Inflation Adjustment. The General Support Services Allowance and Management Fee shall be increased by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index averaged for the prior twelve (12) month period or four percent (4%) whichever is greater. The Breakdown: No Mutual Agreement Language – will be done upon due date Economic Data File Since CPI is less than 4%, then 4% is used This increases the fee by 4%. For Example, the GSSA at the unit is $1,000 per week. The new GSSA calculation is $1,000*.04 = $40, $1, $40 = $1,040 per week <<Walk through this example using the Economic Data File>>

12 Contract Language Example 3
B. The Charge for benefits pursuant to Section 4.3.B.2 of this Exhibit shall increase by a percentage equal to the percent of change in the Employment Cost Index-Benefits, Private Industry, All Workers for the previous quarter. The Breakdown: No Mutual Agreement Language – will be done upon due date Economic Data File This Increases our Fixed management benefit percentage by ECI. Example: FMB of 34%, ECI is 2.37%, then .34*.0237 = , = 34.81% – Let’s look for the ECI table this time <<Walk through this example using the Economic Data File>>

13 Contract Language Example 4
4.7 Inflation Adjustments. Commencing July 1, 2010, and annually thereafter… The Management Fee shall be increased by an amount to be mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties. The Breakdown: “mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties.” requires a signed/counter-signed document by authorized signatories of both companies. An from the client is not an acceptable document Increase will be implemented by the O/A Client Quality Control team when dually signed document is received. In this case copy the IPA team mail box as well

14 Hospitals & Senior Living
Waiver Approval Segment Approval Levels: Regional VP VP of Finance Hospitals & Senior Living SVP of Operations Universities Division President Market CFO Corporate Services Waivers not typically used Schools SVP of Finance Canada

15 Working Together Working together is vital to reducing client exposure and implementing a timely and accurate inflation increase. Field billing can be complex, and a breakdown of certain charges maybe needed to process the inflation increase. Timely communication on waivers IPA will reach out to contact at billing location to increase rates in UFS. If this is not done, it will cause UFS billing compliance issues, balance sheet issues, or cause audit flags since billings are not being create per the most recent contract terms. Check in with your DMs/RVPS (ask for the notification file) or send request to IPA team to be added to distribution list. Many GMs and Unit Controllers are caught unaware when inflation changes are made. Controllers know the field billing the best. We need you help with make sure any updates are accurate. The last thing anyone wants s client exposure. If an increase gets processed and then has to be removed it causes retro billing and I’m sure more questions from the client.
