We have offered successful alternative manufacturers for items such as insulation, roofing, chillers &amp; many others. At the time, joists had lead times of an unprecedented 9-12 months, we worked w\/ engineers to design with standard steel beams in lieu of joists.\u00a0 We proposed concrete framed buildings in lieu of structural steel when steel was at an all-time high. \u00a0As of late, with steel down and ready mix up, we now collaborate during the design phase to propose options for structural steel buildings in lieu of concrete framed buildings where it makes the most economic sense.\u00a0 With the lead times of 52 weeks for items such as switchgear and chillers, we have advised clients to utilize early packages to start procurement earlier in the process to secure long lead items.\u00a0 Understanding the market trends as they have occurred has provided our precon teams with the information to provide best value costs and schedule solutions to our clients.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, we will be looking at some key factors that impacted pricing in 2022.\u00a0 <strong><em>After the new year, we will release another post looking forward to 2023.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Learning from 2021<\/strong>. For much of 2021, estimators were shouting from the rooftops about inflation. Raw goods like steel and lumber saw massive price increases resulting in serious challenges for anyone trying to procure structural steel or wood framing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>February &#8211; Russian Invasion of Ukraine<\/strong>. On February 24, 2022, it launched its invasion of Ukraine. While the invasion was not wholly unexpected, the resistance faced was certainly a surprise to many.\u00a0 As a result, there was a rapid shift in expectations, and the economy began to feel the effects. On February 23<sup>rd<\/sup>, the price of WTI Crude oil stood at $92.14 by March 8<sup>th,<\/sup> pricing reached $123.64. Prices began to fluctuate and resulted in major sticker shock to consumers and builders throughout the summer.\u00a0 Almost immediately after the invasion, fuel surcharges began to hit, and many vendors are still refusing to honor freight prices until the known time of shipment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/DCOILWTICO#0\">Crude Oil Prices: West Texas Intermediate (WTI) &#8211; Cushing, Oklahoma (DCOILWTICO) | FRED | St. Louis Fed (stlouisfed.org)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11740\" src=\"https:\/\/manhattanconstructiongroup.com\/manhattan-construction-company\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/12\/2022-February.png\" alt=\"2022 February Trendlines Graph\" width=\"624\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/manhattanconstructiongroup.com\/manhattan-construction-company\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/12\/2022-February.png 624w, https:\/\/manhattanconstructiongroup.com\/manhattan-construction-company\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/12\/2022-February-300x115.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>March &#8211; Labor shortages = More expensive labor<\/strong>.
