About this file
This is a Project Cost Forms exhibit for the Enhancement & Maintenance of the Cancer and Chronic Disease Data Management System, a data modernization initiative undertaken by the Delaware Division of Public Health (DPH), specifically the Bureau of Cancer Prevention and Control (BCPC) and Bureau of Chronic Disease (BCD). The project is structured in six phases with defined deliverables and milestones. Phase 1 includes a Baseline Project Plan and Document Templates; Phase 2 includes Business Requirements and Design Specifications Documents; Phase 3 includes Communications, Test, Training, and Implementation Plans; Phase 4 includes System Integration Testing (SIT), completed training, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT); Phase 5 includes Production System Acceptance; and Phase 6 concludes the warranty period. Contractors must provide fully loaded hourly rates for all project staff, detailed ongoing support cost schedules for years 0 through n with capped annual inflation rates, and comprehensive listings of third-party software and hardware to be purchased by DHSS.
The firm fixed price contract structure ties contractor invoicing to formal DHSS approval of each phase milestone. Phase milestones are weighted as follows: Phase 1 (5% of total DDI cost), Phase 2 (10%), Phase 3 (10%), Phase 4 (15%), Phase 5 (40%), and Phase 6 (20%), with mandatory 20% holdbacks applied to all milestones except the final phase. Contractors must specify costs for each deliverable such that individual deliverable costs total to the milestone cost, and all figures are subject to verification for accuracy. The contract permits scope modifications and deliverable swaps in the design phase without affecting the firm fixed price, and approved change orders are bundled into Phase 5. DHSS will purchase all third-party software licenses and hardware directly from vendors; contractor developer licenses and estimated costs for these items are excluded from the firm fixed price but are used for budget justification to state and federal funding partners.

Please fill out each of the costs and dates specified above. Computed costs will be in the manner specified. Milestone costs are a specified percentage of the Total DDI cost. Deliverable costs must total to the milestone cost. If DHSS decides to eliminate one or more deliverables from this project, the firm fixed price of the contract would be adjusted by subtracting the cost of the deliverable(s) to be eliminated. Reduction in the scope of an individual deliverable could result in a cost reduction as well. Deliverables that are roughly equal in scope can be swapped in/out in the design phase and maintain the firm fixed price of the contract.
The Total Project Cost shown in Schedule E1 must include all costs that the Contractor will be paid by DHSS under this contract. The Total Project Cost figure constitutes the firm fixed price of the contract.
Deliverables and milestones in the project cost schedule above will be identified in the Baseline Project Plan deliverable along with the projected date of DHSS approval.
Contractor must complete the Projected Date column for each milestone and the dates must correspond to the dates provided in the high level project plan.
Holdbacks are mandatory for every milestone with the exception of the final phase milestone. Holdbacks cannot be modified except by contractual agreement.
Milestone Cost Breakdown
1. Mn = Total Cost for Phase n deliverables – 20% holdback
1. M6 = Sum of M1 – M5 holdbacks Costs for each task/deliverable listed must be specified along with the total cost of all tasks/deliverables in each specified phase. Please check all figures for accuracy.
DDI costs will be invoiced only through identified milestones upon formal approval by the Division and IRM. DDI invoicing by any other manner is prohibited except by prior written consent of DHSS. As applicable, approved change orders shall be bundled into a single deliverable that will be added to the Phase 5 milestone in Schedule E1. The milestone cost, milestone holdback and invoice amount would be adjusted accordingly. This milestone would be invoiced via the prescribed process.
Software will be acquired by DHSS in the State’s or DHSS’ name. Estimated total costs are only to be included in Schedule E4.
Hardware will be acquired by DHSS in the State’s or DHSS name. Estimated total costs are only to be included in Schedule E5.
E2. Schedule of Rates for Project Staff Contractor is to list the fully loaded hourly rate for each person bid. These rates will be binding and will be used to estimate costs in the event of a change in project scope. A fully loaded hourly rate is an hourly rate that encompasses all costs to the Contractor for providing additional services to DHSS as necessitated by for additional tasks not covered under the scope of this contract. Costs included in this rate would be salary, overhead, lodging, travel, supplies, incidentals, etc. This rate would be used to apply against the hours estimated for each additional task proposed such that Task Hours * Rate = Task Cost.

Please specify the ACA Safe Harbor Additional Fee and the basis separately on this cost form.
E3. Ongoing Support Cost Schedule Ongoing support costs are to be listed in the following schedule. Total costs are to be capped at a n% inflation rate per year. Support costs may be categorized separately (i.e. Hosting, Tier 2 Support, Maintenance (up to n hours), etc.) or Contractor may choose to bid a single all-inclusive total support cost per year. Contractor will detail in this section what their responsibilities will be for ongoing support. Years 1 – n are included in the firm fixed price of the contract. DHSS may choose to amend the contract for n additional years (in one year increments) of support at its sole discretion.
Year 0 consists of the support cost during the warranty timeframe.
