About this file
This is a Subcontracting Percentage Worksheet issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior for calculating compliance with FAR Clause 52.219-14, Limitations of Subcontracting. The worksheet is a template designed to determine whether a prime contractor's subcontracting costs exceed allowable thresholds under federal contracting regulations.
The worksheet requires prime contractors to input and calculate direct labor costs, fringe benefits, and General and Administrative (G&A) costs for both the prime contractor and any subcontractors. The calculation methodology involves adding direct labor and fringe benefits to establish a subtotal, then applying the appropriate G&A rate to derive total labor costs. The subcontracting labor cost percentage is computed using the formula: (D) / (C) + (D), where (D) represents the subcontractor's total labor costs and (C) represents the prime contractor's total labor costs. The worksheet includes three critical notes: labor overhead must be allowable under FAR 31.205-6(m) or it will be eliminated entirely from calculations; if subcontractor cost breakdowns are unavailable, the total subcontracting amount should be used for comparison purposes while still maintaining a breakdown of contractor costs; and G&A denotes General and Administrative Costs. This template is used to ensure prime contractors comply with federal limitations on the percentage of work that may be subcontracted.

FAR Clause 52.219-14, Limitations of Subcontracting
Subcontracting Percentage Worksheet
PRIME CONTRACTOR: SOURCE:
SUBCONTRACTOR: SOURCE:
PRIME CONTRACTOR SUBCONTRACTOR
DIRECT LABOR $ $
FRINGE BENEFITS* $ $
SUB TOTAL (A) $ (B) $
LABOR G&A**@______% $ $
TOTAL LABOR COSTS (C) $ (D) $
To calculate the subcontracting percentage, first add DIRECT LABOR and FRINGE BENEFITS and enter the figures for the prime contractor in space (A) and for the subcontractor (if available)** in space (B).
Next, Calculate the LABOR G&A by multiplying the G&A rate by the SUBTOTAL figure in space (A).
Calculate the subcontractor’s LABOR G&A by multiplying the subcontractor’s G&A rate by the subcontractor’s SUBTOTAL figure in (B).
Add the LABOR G&A to the SUBTOTAL and record that figure in the spaces for TOTAL LABOR COSTS at (C) and (D) respectively.
Next, using the formula below, calculate the subcontracting labor percentage.
(D)
(C) + (D)
SUBCONTRACTING LABOR COST PERCENTAGE = %
* The firm must demonstrate that their labor overhead is allowable in accordance with FAR 31.205- 6(m). Failure to do so will csuse the entire overhead to be eliminated from the calculations.
** G&A denotes General and Administrative Costs
*** You need to compare as like figures as possible. Therefore, if you have a breakdown of the subcontractos’s costs use it in the formulation above. If you do not have a breakdown you need to use the TOTAL SUBCONTRACTING AMOUNT for item (D) even though you must still breakdown the contractor’s costs.
