This is a Budget Proposal Template attachment for RFP 535933 issued by the City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement on behalf of the Housing and Revitalization Department in Michigan. The template is designed for organizations to submit comprehensive budget proposals for the Homelessness Drop-In Centers contract opportunity, which seeks to provide 24-hour, low-barrier facility services including basic needs, support services, and safe rest spaces for people experiencing homelessness. The budget template allows applicants to modify and expand sections as needed to accurately reflect their proposed project and organizational costs. The document requires detailed budget narratives that justify the eligibility of each line item and demonstrate how costs meet program needs.

The budget template includes multiple expense categories: Program Salary and Personnel Costs, Payroll Taxes (capped at 7.65%), Fringe Benefits, Direct Expenses, Start-Up Costs, and Other expenses, with administrative costs capped at no more than 10% of the total award amount. The template provides sample line items and calculations, including full-time equivalent (FTE) staffing positions with associated salary amounts and percentages of funding allocation. Internal comments within the document indicate ongoing discussion between procurement staff regarding the inclusion of operational expenses and clarification of direct expense categories. Applicants must provide the Organization Name and Annual Amount Requested, with all budget requests requiring detailed descriptions and justification aligned with project needs and program eligibility requirements.
