Attachment 5 General Condition Breakdown.docx

This is a general conditions cost breakdown template for a construction project. The document outlines three primary cost categories for general contractor expenses: Project Management, Bonds and Insurance, and Site Conditions. The Project Management section includes staffing costs for key personnel such as superintendents, safety managers, CPM schedulers, quality assurance/control staff, project managers, field engineers, and support personnel. The Bonds and Insurance category covers builder's risk insurance, general liability insurance, and security, payment, and performance bonds for the general contractor. The Site Conditions section is the most comprehensive, detailing temporary facilities and services required throughout the construction duration, including temporary utilities (power, water, sewer, electrical, telephone, and internet), fire protection, heating and cooling, fencing, traffic control measures, lighting, sanitary facilities, and security systems. Additional items encompassed in site conditions are pre-construction and progress photography documentation, temporary protective measures for adjacent structures, and site restoration upon completion.

This breakdown template is associated with a Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 9 pre-solicitation for replacing site underground chilled water piping. The template serves as a standardized format for contractors to present their general conditions costs in response to this federal construction opportunity, ensuring consistent pricing presentation across competing bids.
