About this file
This is a budget calculation tool spreadsheet template for the FY2025 Exchange Network Grant Program. The template helps applicants calculate and categorize costs across eight budget categories: Personnel, Fringe Benefits, Travel, Equipment (items ≥$10,000), Supplies (items <$10,000), Contractual (with $93.53 maximum hourly rate for consultants), Other costs, and Indirect Costs.
The template includes both blank forms for applicant input and an example budget totaling $270,561 for a Capacity Building with Mentorship project. The example shows detailed breakdowns including three staff positions (Program Manager, Environmental Engineer, Data Scientist), equipment purchases like S-Node SRF units ($6,704 each) and TRILR Sensors ($8,123 each), and a consultant contract at $87.93/hour for 580 hours. The template is designed to generate numbers that can be used in the Budget Narrative Attachment Form, SF424-A Form, and Project Narrative Section 7, though it does not replace these required documents.
