About this file

This is a Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet for the Maryland Statewide Cybersecurity Resources contract (Solicitation #BPM057598). The solicitation seeks cybersecurity labor resources across three distinct functional areas: Functional Area One (Oversight and Governance) with 23 positions, Functional Area Two (Architecture, Engineering, and Implementation) with 24 positions, and Functional Area Three (Protection and Defense) with 26 positions. Offerors may only respond to one functional area and must provide proposed hourly rates for each position at three experience levels (Junior, Mid, and Senior) for a ten-year contract period. The pricing sheet requires offerors to complete a Financial Proposal Submission tab with authorized signatures and company information, with all calculations automatically generated based on an assumed 1,920 hours per year for each position.

All proposed hourly rates must be fully loaded rates that include labor, profit, overhead, general operating, administrative expenses, and all other costs necessary to perform the work. Offerors must enter pricing exclusively in yellow-highlighted cells, and any alterations or conditions to the pricing may render the proposal not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award. The total cost of all labor categories within the selected functional area serves as the basis for financial ranking and evaluation. The State reserves the right to request clarification of any pricing entries and may assess pricing reasonableness and competitiveness using the average hourly labor rate for each functional area. No minimum or maximum number of contract hours is guaranteed, and option years may be exercised at the State's sole discretion at the prices entered in the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet.

Attachment B - Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet Instructions
Statewide Cyber Resourcing Contract
Solicitation #: BPM057598
B-1 Financial Proposal Instructions
In order to assist Offerors in the preparation of their Financial Proposal and to comply with the requirements of this solicitation, Financial Proposal Instructions and a Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet have been prepared. Offerors shall submit their Financial Proposal on the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet in accordance with the instructions on the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet and as specified herein. Do not alter the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet or the Proposal may be determined to be not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award. The Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet is to be signed and dated where requested by an authorized representative of the Offeror.
The Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet is used to calculate the Offeror's TOTAL Proposal PRICE. Follow these instructions carefully when completing your Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet:
A.All Unit and Extended Prices must be clearly entered in dollars and cents, e.g., $24.15. Make your decimal points clear and distinct.
B.All Unit Prices must be the actual hourly rate per unit the State will pay for the specific labor category identified in this solicitation and may not be contingent on any other factor or condition in any manner.
C.All calculations shall be rounded to the nearest cent, i.e., .344 shall be .34 and .345 shall be .35.
D.Any goods or services required through this RFP and proposed by the vendor at No Cost to the State shall be clearly entered in the Unit Price, if appropriate, and Extended Price with $0.00.
E.Every blank in every Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet shall be filled in. Any changes or corrections made to the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet by the Offeror prior to submission shall be initialed and dated.
F.Except as instructed on the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet, nothing shall be entered on or attached to the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet that alters or proposes conditions or contingencies on the prices. Alterations and/or conditions may render the Proposal not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
G.It is imperative that the prices included on the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet have been entered correctly and calculated accurately by the Offeror and that the respective total prices agree with the entries on the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet. Any incorrect entries or inaccurate calculations by the Offeror will be treated as provided in COMAR 21.05.03.03.F, and may cause the Proposal to be rejected.
H.If option years are included, Offerors must submit pricing for each option year. Any option to renew will be exercised at the sole discretion of the State and will comply with all terms and conditions in force at the time the option is exercised. If exercised, the option period shall be for a period identified in the RFP at the prices entered in the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet.
I.All Financial Proposal prices entered below are to be fully loaded hourly rates that include all costs/expenses associated with the provision of services as required by the RFP. The Financial Proposal price shall include, but is not limited to, all: labor, profit/overhead, general operating, administrative, and all other expenses and costs necessary to perform the work set forth in the solicitation. No other amounts will be paid to the Contractor. If labor rates are requested, those amounts shall be fully loaded hourly rates with no exceptions.
J.Unless indicated elsewhere in the RFP, sample amounts used for calculations on the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheet are typically estimates for evaluation purposes only. Unless stated otherwise in the RFP, the State does not guarantee a minimum or maximum number of units or usage in the performance of the resulting contract.
K.Failure to adhere to any of these instructions may result in the Proposal being determined not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
L.Offerors may only respond to one Functional Area.

B-3 How to Complete the Financial Proposal Pricing Sheets (FA1, FA2, FA3)
1Each Functional Area tab (FA1, FA2, FA3) lists a set of cybersecurity labor categories at three experience levels: Junior, Mid, and Senior.

Note: Offerors are to complete the tab for the FA selected. Leave all others blank. Offerors may only respond to one Functional Area.

2For each labor category, enter a proposed fully loaded hourly rate in the yellow highlighted cells for Year 1 through Year 10. Enter rates in dollars and cents (e.g., $125.50). Do not enter values in any non-highlighted cells.
3The "Total Cost" column (Column M) contains a formula that automatically calculates Total Cost. Do not alter or overwrite this formula.

The "Total Cost of All Labor Categories" in column M contains a formula that automatically calculates Total Cost of All Labor Categories. Do not alter or overwrite this formula.

4Offerors must provide a proposed hourly rate for every position in every year. A rate of $0.00 should be entered only if the Offeror is proposing that labor category at no cost to the State.
5Rates must remain consistent with the Offeror's technical approach and proposed staffing. Rates that are unreasonably low may be subject to a request for clarification or may result in the Proposal being determined not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
6Complete the "Financial Proposal Submission" tab in its entirety. The authorized signature must be from an individual with the legal authority to bind the Offeror.
B-4 Evaluation Notice
The Financial Proposal will be evaluated based on the Total Proposed Price across the Functional Area for which the Offeror submits a proposal. Offerors may only respond to one Functional Area. The Average Hourly Labor Rate for each Functional Area may be used as part of the evaluation to assess pricing reasonableness and competitiveness. The State reserves the right to request clarification of any pricing entry.
NOTE: The yellow highlighted cells on each Functional Area tab are the ONLY cells where Offeror input is permitted. All other cells are either labels, headers, or contain formulas and must not be modified.
