EXHIBIT A - SUPPORTING SCHEDULE

INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETION OF A CONTRACT PRICING PROPOSAL

The Contract Pricing Proposal form provides a vehicle for the offeror to submit to the Laboratory a pricing proposal of estimated costs by contract line time with supporting information. When more than one contract line item is proposed, a separate Contract Pricing Proposal Form shall be completed and submitted for each item, plus a form consolidating all contract line item submissions.

In addition to the specific information required by this form, the offeror is expected to submit any additional data, supporting schedules, or substantiations which are reasonably required for the conduct of an appropriate review and analysis of the proposal. When attachment of supporting cost or pricing data is impracticable, the data will be described and made available to the Laboratory or its representative upon request.

By submission of this proposal, the offeror grants to the Laboratory, or its authorized representative, the right to examine for the purpose of verifying the cost or pricing data submitted or identified, those books, records, documents, and other supporting data which will permit adequate evaluation of such cost or pricing data. This right may be exercised in connection with any negotiations prior to contract award.

As part of the specific information required by this form, the offeror must submit any information reasonably required to explain the offeror’s estimating process, including: (a) the judgmental factors applied and the methods used in projecting costs from known data, and (b) the contingencies used by the offeror in its proposed price.

Depending on the offeror’s system, breakdowns shall be provided for the applicable cost elements:

Materials - Provide a price summary of individual material quantities being proposed and the basis for pricing (vendor quotes, invoice prices, etc.). For subcontracted items include a description of services being procured, subcontractor’s name, subcontract value, and basis for determining price to be reasonable.

Direct Labor - Provide a time phased (e.g., monthly, quarterly, etc.) breakdown of labor hours, rates, and cost by appropriate category, and furnish basis for the estimates.

Indirect Costs - Indicate the rates being used and provide an appropriate explanation as to how the rates were computed and applied. When agreement has been reached with Government representatives on the use of forward pricing rates, describe the nature of the agreement.

Other Costs - List all other costs not otherwise included in the categories described above, and provide the basis used in developing the proposed amounts.

Facilities Capital Cost of Money - When the offeror elects to claim Facilities Capital Cost of Money as an allowable cost, the offeror must submit Form CASB-CMF and show the calculation of the proposed amount.
