Attachment 1 - DME Working Hours Calculation.docx

This attachment is a durable medical equipment (DME) working hours calculation document containing multiple instructional images and worksheets for determining staffing and labor hours. The document provides calculation methodologies and templates for contractors to use in developing proposals for the J079 DME Cleaning & Janitorial Services contract with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 21. The images appear to show step-by-step instructions or examples for computing required working hours, likely based on facility size, equipment volume, cleaning frequency, and other operational parameters specified in the Performance Work Statement. This calculation tool is designed to ensure consistent and accurate labor hour projections across contractor proposals and to align staffing requirements with the actual scope of DME cleaning and janitorial services needed across the VA facility network. The document serves as a reference guide to support contractors in developing realistic and compliant staffing plans and associated labor cost estimates for their solicitation responses.
