Exhibit B Budget Template.xlsx

This is a Budget Template exhibit for the NBS Laboratory Information Management System procurement by the State of Colorado's Office of Information Technology (OIT). The template is structured to capture costs across a five-year contract period, with line items for three primary cost categories: Development of Solution, Implementation of Solution, and Future Maintenance and Management of the Solution. The template provides annual cost breakdowns for Years 1 through 5, culminating in a total estimated cost figure that represents the complete financial commitment for the project term.

The budget template currently displays zero dollar amounts across all cost categories and years, indicating that it serves as a blank framework for bidders to complete during the proposal submission process. This exhibit establishes the financial reporting structure that proposing vendors must use to present their pricing for the laboratory information management system solution. The template format suggests a phased approach to the project, distinguishing between initial development and implementation activities in the earlier years and ongoing maintenance and management responsibilities in subsequent years.
