About this file
This document is an appendix providing sample calculations for direct labor burden as it relates to the CTF SCCF Dementia Unit Improvements project in Colorado. The appendix demonstrates the methodology for calculating labor costs by showing how to compute burden rates applied to direct labor hours. It includes example calculations that illustrate the process of determining total labor costs when direct hourly wages are multiplied by applicable burden rates, which typically encompass fringe benefits, payroll taxes, and other labor-related overhead expenses. The sample calculations serve as a reference guide for bidders preparing their cost proposals and labor rate submissions in response to the solicitation.
The burden calculation examples provide transparency regarding how the state expects contractors to structure their labor cost submissions and ensure consistency across all bidder proposals. These calculations are essential for establishing fair and comparable pricing across competing bids, allowing the evaluation committee to assess true labor costs inclusive of all associated expenses. By providing sample calculations, the state enables bidders to accurately project their labor costs and submit compliant proposals that reflect actual operational expenses while maintaining standardized methodology across all submissions.
