Urban vs Rural Rates in 2022
Each monthly bulletin provides separate rates for Urban and Rural areas. Urban rates reflect material prices in major cities like Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, and Quetta where markets are competitive and transportation is efficient. Rural rates account for additional transportation costs, limited availability, and different market dynamics in countryside and remote areas. Having both categories ensures accurate estimation regardless of your project location.
How to Use Statistical Bulletin 2022 for Cost Escalation
For contract escalation, compare the base month rates with the current month rates from the bulletin. The price difference is applied to the contract value using the standard price adjustment formula specified in most government contracts. Each bulletin provides the necessary data to calculate escalation for cement, steel, labor, and other construction materials as per PEC standard bidding documents.
