Appendix A - Cost Breakdown.xlsx

This file is a construction cost breakdown template designed for vendors submitting proposals to federal construction contracts. The template requires vendors to provide their company information (name, address, phone, email, CAGE Code), solicitation details (project title, solicitation number, proposal validity period), and a detailed itemized cost proposal organized by category. The cost proposal categories include bonds and insurance (certificate of insurance, performance bonds, payment bonds, and bid bonds), mobilization costs, architecture and engineering design at various completion levels (35%, 65%, 95%, and 100%/construction set), materials, equipment, labor (broken down by hours and rates), miscellaneous charges, and a construction project grand total. The template emphasizes that offerors bear the burden of proof for establishing reasonable pricing and must provide complete supporting data, basis, and rationale for all proposed costs to enable government personnel to verify that information is current, complete, and accurate in accordance with FAR 15.403-4 requirements.
