The spreadsheet provides a structured format for proposing and itemizing various indirect costs associated with contract performance, including printing, postage, rent, dues and subscriptions, and other miscellaneous expenses. The template includes example cost calculations demonstrating how to populate the spreadsheet, such as printing costs of $0.30 per page multiplied by 10 pages, and rent at $1,000 per month over a 6-month period, resulting in specific total cost figures.

Proposals submitted in response to this solicitation must clearly explain and justify all proposed ODCs using this spreadsheet format. The breakdown allows the contracting officer to review and evaluate the reasonableness of indirect costs claimed by offerors. This template is classified as Confidential Procurement Sensitive and is intended for use by the Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in evaluating proposals for technical support services under the Traffic Records Program, which will be delivered through task orders issued under the contract's C.5 provisions.
