This worksheet is intended to help you prepare your cost proposal. If you provide us with an electronic copy of the cost proposal, we can save time by not recreating it. This will help speed up the review/award process and perhaps reduce the number of questions we need to ask in order to understand your proposal. We understand that one spreadsheet format can not fit every situation; however, we have attempted to create a simple model that fits most circumstances that arise in Government contracting. Feel free to modify the spreadsheet to fit your circumstances, and to use the parts that work for you. There are more specific instructions on specific cost element pages where applicable.

Summary Page Please insert your organization's name in cell A2 and the RFP No. in cell A3.

The totals from each cost element page are automatically carried forward to the Summary worksheet. Enter the start date of the contract in cell C5.

This Excel file is set up for seven periods.

Direct Labor Use the Labor - Percent of Effort worksheet if you track labor on a percent of effort basis. Generally, Universities, Hospitals, and Non-Profit Organizations tract labor by percent of effort.

Use the Labor - Hourly worksheet if you track labor on an hourly basis. Commercial organizations track labor on an hourly basis.

Use both pages if you track some employees by each method. Please do not put any employee on both pages. Consultants should be proposed on the consultants worksheet, not the labor worksheets.

The proposed amounts must be based on current payroll information which shows hourly, monthly, or annual rate/salary for each proposed (named) individuals. Acceptable documentation includes any one of the following: 1) personnel action forms, or 2) most recent payroll register showing name, pay rate, and percent of effort if applicable, or 3) copy of pay stub. Supporting documentation may be requested at a later date.

If the proposed positions have not been filled or are to be named or hired, then acceptable documentation includes the following: 1) letter of intent to hire including salary rate and title, or 2) position descriptions and salary scales or organizational wage table showing salary range and a copy of hiring policy, or 3) a comparable employee's payroll document. Supporting documentation may be requested at a later date. Increases for the to be named or hired are not eligible for increases in the first period.

Attachment 11

Not all organizations allocate indirect cost in the same way. It is important that you use the indirect rate structure applicable to your organization. For example, if you have a two tier indirect rate structure, then you will use a two tier structure when proposing indirect costs.

Generally, Universities and Non-Profits have fringe benefit and G&A (or sometimes called F&A) rates, while For-Profit Companies can have various indirect rates such as fringe benefits, overhead, G&A, etc.

The base for overhead costs includes direct labor and fringe benefits. Please modify if your base is different.

If applicable, insert exclusions to the G&A base in row 26.

If you have questions regarding indirect (F&A) rates see website: http://oamp.od.nih.gov/dfas/IdCSubmission.asp This website also contains definitions, examples, and training.

Please insert the Company's name and the RFP #.
