About this file
This is a FAR Clause 52.219-14 Subcontracting Percentage Worksheet template issued by the National Park Service Contracting Operations East, New York Major Acquisition Buying Office for Solicitation 140P4525R0022 – Building 40 Stabilization, dated 25 July 2025.
The worksheet is a calculation tool designed to determine the subcontracting labor cost percentage for prime contractors and their subcontractors. It provides step-by-step instructions for computing the percentage by adding direct labor and fringe benefits for both prime and subcontractor entities, calculating labor General and Administrative (G&A) costs at specified rates, and applying the formula: (D)/(C+D), where (D) represents total subcontractor labor costs and (C) represents total prime contractor labor costs. The document includes a sample calculation demonstrating a 21.43 percent subcontracting labor percentage. Labor overhead must be demonstrated as allowable under FAR 31.205-6(m) or it will be eliminated from calculations. The worksheet accommodates situations where subcontractor cost breakdowns are unavailable by using total subcontracting amounts instead.
In accordance with FAR Clause 52.219-14(e)(3) for general construction, the prime contractor or similarly situated entities must perform a minimum of 15 percent of the work, excluding material costs, with no more than 85 percent of government-paid contract performance amounts (excluding materials) going to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any further subcontracting by similarly situated entities counts toward the prime contractor's 85 percent subcontract cap.

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.
