As you know, at the core of our commitment to you lies a relentless pursuit of excellence, achieved through the continuous refinement of our products. In recent months, we have identified areas within our methodology that could be improved, significantly enhancing the consistency of the price assessments you rely on.

So over the past months, we have been dedicating significant efforts to enhancing our methodology. At this point, we are pleased to announce that we will be launching a revamped price assessment methodology by 2024-Q1.

The revamped Price Assessment Methodology will bring the improvements below:

  • Greater use of futures contract data
  • Standardization/detailing of assessments
  • Gathering of trade data with higher granularity
  • Improved use of mathematical modelling

These improvements will result in:

  1. More reliable price assessments, i.e., price movements will better reflect the market behavior.
  2. Greater consistency between assessments, i.e., price assessments for a given commodity, in different locations, will be more consistent.
  3. Clearer and more detailed descriptions of assessments.

The following Intratec products will be impacted by this change:

  • Intratec Primary Commodity Prices
  • Intratec Energy Price References
  • Intratec Water & Utility Cost
  • Intratec Plant Construction Indexes
  • Intratec Plant Location Factors

Also, all customers must be aware that the history for some price assessments may be entirely adjusted, and some assessments may be discontinued or replaced.
