Introduction

Instructions for Completing the Staffing Chart:

To ensure that all cost and staffing proposals are evaluated fairly, it is imperative that proposals be presented as clearly and as consistently as possible.

In addition to the presentation of staff resources by cost groups under the ETA 2110 format, it is necessary to display, for the purpose of evaluation, the number of staff by functional groups in accordance with the outline of the Statement of Work, Part I, Section C.

The following Staffing Chart shall be completed. The number of staff in each function shall be shown on this chart. The costs of each staff position shall be shown in the narrative justification for each ETA 2110 line of your cost proposal. Each contractor has its own manner of organizing its staff; however, for the purposes of this proposal, follow the outline of this Staffing Chart. Also, to assure cost proposal consistency, please allocate each staff member cost in your cost proposal in accordance with the ETA 2110 Line Number and Cost Code, as detailed in PRH Chapter 5, for each separate position.

Different contractors have different position titles for similar functions. However, for purposes of evaluation, offerors may not change position titles in column 1. Where offeror’s position titles differ, actual titles should be entered in the “Remarks” column. The Staffing Chart describes functions. In the event that a position is so unique that it does not fit any title on the chart, place the position in the appropriate place on the chart and indicate by Line Number and/or Cost Code where it can be found in your cost proposal.

Definitions.

1. Standard Position Title

2. The number of staff at each position title. If none are proposed, leave the line blank. If one person performs more than one function or one person performs the same function in two or more different functional areas, show the allocation of that person's time as a decimal (e.g., .5) allocation to the proper line.

3. If a position is subcontracted, show the number in the appropriate column.

4. Remarks. The center title, if different from the title shown in the left-hand column, and any comments you wish to make.
