Business proposals are required to include the appropriate supporting information, cross-referenced to the related column, row, and form. The supporting information should be detailed and, as appropriate, fully explain calculations, bases for estimates, etc. Failure to supply the supportive documentation for all proposed costs may be grounds of rejection and the proposal will be returned accordingly. Examples of supporting information include:
a. Quotes and estimates from vendors;
b. Market surveys;
c. Historical data;
d. Specific calculations used to estimate proposed costs and an explanation;
e. Catalog prices; and
f. Previous billing statements/ expense vouchers.
METHOD OF SUBMISSION

The cost information in the electronic version of your completed business proposal must be in Excel2013 format. The narrative supporting information can be in Excel2013, Word2013, or PDF format.
