IFB Cost Estimate Worksheet.xlsx

This is a cost estimate worksheet template for an Invitation for Bid (IFB) solicitation. The document is designed for contractors to submit lump sum cost estimates organized by construction division for the Initial and Replacement Upright Headstone and Flat Marker Setting project at Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Elwood, Illinois. Solicitation Number 36C78626B0022 is issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration.

The worksheet requires contractors to provide pricing across five Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs 001-005) and includes cost line items spanning the full range of construction divisions, from Division 0 (Special Sections) through Division 33 (Utilities), along with separate line items for bonds, overhead, and profit. Contractors must provide lump sum totals for each division utilized in the project or mark divisions as "N/A" if not applicable, with the option to add additional cost items deemed appropriate. The format culminates in a grand total cost submission, allowing the government to compare fixed-price bids across qualified contractors for this headstone and marker installation work at the national cemetery.
