That is a phrase we use with regard to many different areas, however we may be overlooking one very important area – contract escalators.

We should be receiving formal documentation regarding pricing changes. In fact any pricing change should only be enacted when it is presented as an amendment/addendum and signed by an authorized member of the firm.
