NIOSH_BAA_Pricing_Proposal_Template.xlsx

This is a pricing proposal template for the NIOSH Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) solicitation process. The template provides a standardized Excel-based format for offerors to submit their pricing for university health and safety research projects focused on mining industry applications. The template accommodates proposals with a base/core effort and up to four optional phases, with cost projections spanning up to four years.

The pricing summary section requires offerors to enter totals across five primary cost element categories: Direct Labor, Contractor-Acquired Equipment, Direct Materials/Supplies, Other Direct Costs (including Travel), Subcontractor Expense, and Indirect Costs. The detailed pricing worksheet provides 200 line items for itemized cost breakdowns, allowing offerors to specify individual cost entries by year and month, cost category, phase designation, quantity/hours, unit rates, and supporting documentation references. The template is designed to automatically calculate total proposed prices based on entered quantities and hourly rates or fixed amounts. This template is intended for use by university and college offerors with ABET-accredited mining engineering programs responding to the NIOSH OMSHR solicitation (75D30127Q79333) seeking research proposals addressing mining safety and health innovations and evaluations.
