With the central database architecture of CAF-CORPORATION, client knowledge remains secure and available when they need it, and options for customized databases are available as per client request.

The CAF-CAPEX DATABASE information has been previously benchmarked with other third parties Databases, for example, some well-known datasets such as Compass International, Richardson and Page & Nations.

Since Cost (or price) indexes are an integral part of cost estimating, given that they are the way to update costs from the date they were incurred to the present day or to some other time. CAF-CAPEX Cost Index Tool tracks the costs of equipment, facilities, materials and personnel (both qualified and non-qualified) used in the construction of a geographically diversified portfolio of projects of oil & gas process plants onshore, offshore, pipelines, also “renewable energy” projects and other sectors. It is similar to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) used by country authorities of economy, as it provides a transparent reference tool for monitoring and forecasting a complex and dynamic environment. The CAF-CAPEX Cost Index is a useful work product for estimators when it comes to updating material costs and reference equipment with information based on past times.
The tool is located on the top side of all cost tables to make easier the update in live.
