About this file
This is a Subcontracting Percentage Worksheet attachment required under FAR Clause 52.219-14 for solicitation 140P4226Q0005, issued by the Department of the Interior National Park Service CON OPS East in Philadelphia on 19 February 2026. The worksheet is a template designed to calculate the subcontracting labor cost percentage for prime contractors and their subcontractors on the EISE HQ HVAC Replacement and Barns Fire Suppression Repair project. It provides step-by-step instructions for computing subcontracting percentages by combining direct labor and fringe benefits, calculating labor general and administrative (G&A) costs at specified rates, and determining the final subcontracting labor cost percentage using a formula that divides subcontractor total labor costs by the sum of prime contractor and subcontractor total labor costs.
The worksheet includes an embedded Excel example demonstrating the calculation methodology, showing a prime contractor with $605 in total labor costs and a subcontractor with $165 in total labor costs, resulting in a subcontracting labor percentage of 21.43 percent. The document specifies that under FAR Clause 52.219-14(e)(4) for construction by special trade contractors, the prime contractor or similarly situated entities must perform a minimum of 25 percent of work excluding material costs, and cannot subcontract more than 75 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance to non-similarly situated entities. The worksheet emphasizes that firms must demonstrate their labor overhead is allowable under FAR 31.205-6(m), and requires comparison of like figures between prime and subcontractor costs when available.

SUBJECT: FAR CLAUSE 52.219-14, SUBCONTRACTING PERCENTAGE WORKSHEET
SOLICITATION 140P4226Q0005 EISE HQ HVAC Replacement and Barns Fire Suppression Repair
PRIME CONTRACTOR: _________________________ SOURCE: ________________________
SUBCONTRACTOR: ___________________________ SOURCE: ________________________
Example:
To calculate, either follow the below directions OR right click the above Excel ‘Object’ and select ‘Worksheet Object’ then ‘Edit’. You can then input Direct Labor/Fringe Benefits/G&A % and it will calculate for you (as illustrated).
a) To calculate the subcontracting percentage, first add DIRECT LABOR and FRINGE BENEFITS and enter the figures for the prime contractor in space (A) and for the subcontractor (if available)*** in space (B).
b) Next, calculate the LABOR G&A by multiplying the G&A rate by the SUBTOTAL figure in space (A).
c) Calculate the subcontractor's LABOR G&A by multiplying the subcontractor's G&A rate by the subcontractor's SUBTOTAL figure in (B).
d) Add the LABOR G&A to the SUBTOTAL and record that figure in the spaces for TOTAL LABOR COSTS at (C) and (D) respectively.
e) Next, using the formula below, calculate the subcontracting labor percentage.
____(D)____
(C) + (D)
SUBCONTRACTING LABOR COST PERCENTAGE = %
*The firm must demonstrate that their labor overhead is allowable in accordance with FAR 3 l.205- 6(m). Failure to do so will cause the entire overhead to be eliminated from the calculations.
**G&A denotes General and Administrative Costs ***You need to compare as like figures as possible. Therefore, if you have a breakdown of the subcontractor's costs use it in the formulation above. If you do not have a breakdown you need to use the TOTAL SUBCONTRACTING AMOUNT for item (D) even though you must still breakdown the contractor's costs.
In accordance with FAR Clause 52.219-14(e)(4), Construction by special trade contractors, it will not pay more than 75 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the prime contractor's 85 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. Therefore, the prime contractor or similarly situated entities shall perform a minimum of 25 percent of the work, excluding the cost of materials.
