Summary

This is a budget template and instructions document for the Sacramento County Adult Correctional Health Operational Assessment and Medical Training, Policy Review, and Technical Oversight Independent Consultant procurement. The document provides a standardized Excel-based budget framework for respondents to complete a 12-month budget for fiscal year 2026-27 detailing proposed costs to perform services outlined in the Scope of Work. The template requires completion of three interconnected sections: Staffing Detail (identifying full-time equivalent positions, classifications, and compensation), Budget Detail (organizing costs into personnel expenses, operating expenses, and allocated costs), and Budget Narrative (providing detailed justifications for each line item). All yellow-highlighted fields must be completed where applicable, with formulas automatically calculating and carrying amounts across sections. Respondents must submit all three sections as PDF documents with all expenditures rounded to the nearest whole dollar.

Budget screening will verify compliance with stated instructions and enforce a critical cost constraint: proposed indirect and allocated costs cannot exceed 15 percent of proposed salary, benefits, and operating costs combined. The budget framework accommodates both employee and contractor staffing across program service and administrative categories, with separate line items for occupancy, office supplies, equipment leases, IT support, communications, travel, professional services, insurance, and training expenses. The instructions explicitly require detailed justification for all expenses in each major category, with particular attention to one-time expenditures and allocation methodologies for shared administrative costs.
