Attachment 5- Price Workbook.xlsx

This is a pricing workbook template for submitting quotations on foreclosure legal services across three states (Arkansas, North Carolina, and South Carolina) under USDA Rural Development's RFQ 1231ME26Q0001. Contractors must enter unit pricing for nine CLINs per state in the designated yellow-highlighted cells, with estimated quantities of 100 cases per state for evaluation purposes only. The pricing structure includes firm fixed price CLINs for uncontested foreclosure services (with separate breakouts for judicial and non-judicial phases), contested foreclosure services priced per labor hour, bankruptcy services (Chapter 7 and 13) at firm fixed prices, mediation, eviction, and case removal/recall fees. Two additional CLINs establish government plug-in amounts of $25,000 for over-and-above legal fees and $257,500 for reimbursable elements, each capped at their stated not-to-exceed limits.

The workbook is structured with separate tabs for each state's base pricing and subsequent ordering periods, with formulas automatically calculating extended prices by multiplying unit prices by estimated quantities and generating a total evaluated price (TEP) across all CLINs. Contractors must not alter any formulas or rules within the workbook, as doing so constitutes an exception to the task order terms and conditions and may result in elimination from consideration. All submissions must be provided in native Microsoft Excel format (not PDF), with the contractor required to enter only the offeror name in the TEP tab and populate all mandatory pricing cells across the Base Pricing, Ordering Period 1, and Ordering Period 2 tabs to ensure accurate bid evaluation.
