4-Attachment 3 - Cost Proposal.xlsx

The document is a Cost Proposal attachment (Attachment 3 - Cost Proposal.xlsx) for the Salt Lake City Employee Gift Card Program, a competitive sealed proposal solicitation managed by the Department of Human Resources. The spreadsheet provides a template for vendors to detail their Total Cost of Ownership across a potential five-year contract period, with specific requirements for completing yellow-highlighted cells and comprehensive cost breakdowns. The document emphasizes that all costs must be explicitly captured in this proposal format, with warnings that deviation may result in disqualification and that the number of cards is an estimate with no purchase guarantee.

The cost proposal template requires vendors to provide pricing for implementation, Workday integration, and annual costs for Years 1-5, with a total aggregated Cost of Ownership that will determine cost points in the evaluation. The spreadsheet includes sections for detailed cost breakdown (15 line items with option for additional lines), and a separate "Value Add" section for non-scored additional services. Vendors must meticulously complete all yellow cells, understanding that any costs not included in this proposal will not be permitted in the resulting contract. The document suggests that vendors who cannot fully capture their proposed costs should seek modifications during the solicitation's question and answer period.
