3-Appendix I - Proposed CostPrice Proposal Form Sample.xlsx

This is a cost and pricing proposal form sample for a Transit Signal Priority (TSP) Scoping Study for Bus and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Corridors being conducted by the Utah Transit Authority (UTA). The project seeks qualified consultants to conduct a modeling-based study to optimize TSP deployment and improve bus network performance. The scope of work encompasses multiple task categories including principal-level oversight, project management, lead traffic engineering, quality control approaches, critical issues and risks identification, and travel costs. The study results will enable UTA to determine actionable strategies for improving bus network performance and may result in a five-year contract following the initial scoping phase.

The pricing proposal form requires consultants to provide hourly rates by task, including identification of employee roles and titles, hours allocated to each task, basic hourly rates, audited overhead rates, and fee percentages to calculate fully burdened rates and total labor costs. Proposers must complete the form concurrently with their technical response to the solicitation and include their signature and submission date. The form structure allows for the addition of supplementary line items beyond the predefined task categories to accommodate project-specific requirements and additional services as needed.
