Attachment A - Cost Proposal.xlsx

This is a cost proposal attachment for the One-Stop Operator position under RFP No. ILG0007, issued by the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development (DWD) on behalf of the West Central Works Workforce Development Board (WCWWDB). The RFP seeks to retain a One-Stop Operator to coordinate service delivery of required one-stop partners and service providers to ensure meaningful access to all programs through the one-stop delivery system in Workforce Development Area 8. The contract will be a single award and will be executed and administered by either WCWWDB or a designated Contracting Entity. DWD does not guarantee that the Contracting Entity will purchase any specific quantity or dollar amount of services, and proposals requiring such guarantees may be disqualified.

The cost proposal template provides line items for both WIOA Request funding and Leveraged Resources, including categories for staff salaries and fringe benefits, non-personnel costs such as audit and accounting, communication, rent, facilities, supplies, staff travel, training, equipment, contracted services, equipment lease/maintenance, indirect costs, and other expenses. The budget must include a minimum of $3,500 in funding to account for staffing the required functions outlined in the Statement of Work. The template requires bidders to specify their fringe rate, non-personnel rate, and federally approved indirect cost rate as whole numbers, and includes a detailed staffing pattern section where proposers must itemize position titles, locations, monthly salaries/wages, percentage changes, and number of months for each staff position to calculate total compensation costs.
