About this file
This is a cost proposal form (Attachment D) for the North Carolina Department of Revenue's Tax System Modernization project (RFP 45-RQ161211). The form requires vendors to provide detailed cost breakdowns across multiple categories including implementation, software, hosting, production support, and other one-time costs over a 21-year period, with implementation expected to occur up to year 6 and support/maintenance costs occurring after each implementation phase. The implementation can be broken into up to five phases, with each phase requiring detailed cost estimates for project management, organizational change management, training, business process analysis, configuration, integrations, data warehouse, testing, and data conversion activities.
The cost proposal must be submitted as a firm fixed price, with all figures in USD and whole dollars. NCDOR will provide the Azure environment subscription for the system, with security components including firewalls, logging, endpoint protection and vulnerability patching, though costs will be charged back to the vendor. Vendors must provide seven FTEs for Application Support Services and include hourly rate cards for additional services. The form requires detailed assumptions and specifications for all proposed costs, and vendors may also propose value-added services, though these will not be scored as part of the cost evaluation. Payment schedules can be customized but must reconcile with the total cost summary.

1. Instructions RFP 45-RQ161211 North Carolina DOR Tax System Modernization Attachment D - Cost Form
| Response Instructions | |
| Company Name: | <Vendor Company Name Here> |
| This template provides a structured approach for proposing the costs associated with delivering the Tax System and Implementation requirements. Vendor must fill out all applicable worksheets and cells as described by the template and individual worksheet instructions. This template is the formal Cost Form for Vendor's proposal. Vendor warrants that all costs associated with the services as requested in this RFP are included in this workbook. Failure to adequately represent all costs as requested in this RFP may be grounds for proposal disqualification at the sole discretion of the North Carolina DOR. |
The Vendor must complete the Cost Proposal with the expected cost rate based on the anticipated contract start date as stated in the RFP. However, should the contract start date shift for any reason, North Carolina DOR expects Vendor to honor the costs as stated in their Cost Proposal. The total bid cost is a firm fixed price proposal, and the determination of the contract start date will not affect the total bid price. Vendors should prepare cost proposal to reflect best available pricing to meet requested scope of services.
This workbook contains cost information required for submission of a proposal for the services in this RFP. The worksheets within this response template are listed below.
All worksheets must be completed. Any proposals that do not provide complete cost information may be excluded from the competitive field.
- Cells requiring Vendor data entry are highlighted in light-grey to clearly indicate which cells are available for data entry
- Cells that contain titles and formulas are marked in dark gray
- Cells that are not applicable are marked in black highlight
- Do NOT add, edit, or adjust cells unless specifically requested to do so
- It is the Vendor's responsibility to validate the integrity of the Cost Workbook formulas and links
Key Assumptions:
- Vendor must abide by the deadlines detailed in the RFP
- All figures should be in USD and whole dollars
- Implementation is expected to occur up to year 6, with support and maintenance costs occurring after each implementation phase
- Proposals to include costs for a total of 21 years
- Proposed costs should be inclusive of any labor, travel and expenses necessary to deliver on the scope of services

Instructions: in the sections below, describe the environment size then select the environment size in the environment description for each year. Enter the total costs proposed for each year. In developing the hosting cost, the Vendor should reference the MS Azure pricing calculator: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/
NOTE: Vendor chargeback
- Small (for example: 2 CPUs, 32 GB memory and 500 GB of storage)
- Medium (for example: 4 CPUs, 64 GB memory and 1 TB of storage)
- Large (for example: 10 CPUs, 160 GB memory and 5 TB of storage)

HOSTING COST NOTE:
NCDOR will provide the Azure environment (subscription) for the ITS. NCDOR will provide all security components including, but not limited to, firewalls, logging, end point protection and vulnerability patching. The vendor will be given administrative access to the subscription and will be responsible for implementing all systems and services in that subscription to provide the ITS. The vendor will work with NCDOR to determine exactly what controls, as prescribed by IRS publication 1075, are the responsibility of the vendor, the controls that are the responsibility of NCDOR and what controls, if any, are a shared responsibility.
Any costs associated with the azure subscription to host the ITS and related security tools will be charged back to the vendor. The vendor should ensure that the contract cost will be sufficient to cover the costs of the Azure ITS subscription.
The intent of this billing arrangement is to allow the vendor complete flexibility to host the ITS while insulating NCDOR from unpredicted or variable costs. The vendor can then control both performance and hosting costs for the ITS.
Example:
| • | NCDOR pays the vendor for the ITS contract |
| • | The vendor implements the ITS in the provided Azure subscription. NCDOR will apply all security tools that are required. |
| • | Microsoft will bill the Agency for the cost of the subscription. This cost will be charged back to the vendor. |
