Exhibit F _ Project Cost Matrix.xlsx

This is a Cost Proposal Matrix for Design-Build Services related to Project No. J-475-DB, Campus Infrastructure Phase III at Clayton State University in Morrow, Georgia. The matrix serves as a guide for bidders to prepare their cost proposals by indicating where the Owner wishes to allocate costs across three primary cost categories: Construction Fee, General Conditions, and Cost of Work By Others. The document outlines cost allocation requirements across seven major cost sections: Site Supervision & Management, Site Office Expense, Safety & Security, Cleaning, General Equipment, Bonds & Insurance, and Miscellaneous expenses. Key line items include senior project management positions, site office setup and operations, safety equipment and personnel, temporary facilities and utilities, construction equipment, insurance requirements, and various project-related miscellaneous costs. The matrix indicates a projected fee of $1,231,000 based on a $46 million Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP).

The cost proposal structure requires bidders to allocate expenses to appropriate categories marked with "X," with certain items marked as "NA" (not applicable), "Incl." (included in other line items), or assigned specific dollar values. Safety Engineer costs are specified at $30,000 in General Conditions. Bidders must follow this allocation framework when submitting their cost proposals to ensure consistency with the Owner's budgeting requirements. The matrix does not specify response deadlines, award dates, or contract terms within the document itself, as it functions primarily as a cost breakdown template for the design-build project delivery method.
