2-1-26-3-21-8 Rate Schedule Att F-1.xlsx

This is a Rate Schedule attachment (Attachment F) for RFP #1-26-5-10-8 issued by the Maryland Environmental Service (MES) for the Building Energy Performance Standards (BEPS) Technical Assistance Pilot Program. The rate schedule is a spreadsheet template that offerors must complete to submit their proposed labor costs for prime contractors, subcontractors, and MBE subcontractors. Offerors are required to populate the spreadsheet with company names, staff names, job titles, base hourly labor rates, overhead/fringe rates, and fixed fee percentages for each proposed team member. The template includes pre-generated formulas to calculate subtotals and fully billable rates, though offerors may add additional rows or columns as needed while ensuring formula accuracy.

The pricing structure includes several regulatory constraints: base hourly labor rates are capped at $75 per hour (unloaded), and fixed fee markups are capped at 10 percent. Offerors must provide both MPA (Maryland Port Administration) and non-MPA overhead/burden rates, with the standard MPA overhead ceiling rate not to exceed 130 percent, unless the firm has prior written approval from MDOT MPA or MDOT for a higher rate. The program has a 25 percent MBE subcontracting requirement, as indicated in the contract opportunity title. Offerors must delete the example data provided in the template before submission.
