About this file

This RFP Cost Worksheet is a pricing proposal document for the California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) solicitation #RFP FTB-2627-00432 for creative design and digital advertising services supporting the California Earned Income Tax Credit (CalEITC) Advertising Campaign. The RFP requests proposals for nine primary deliverables including audience research and insights, an advertising plan, a media inclusion plan, three sets of creative assets (digital graphics with a minimum of 20 graphics, digital video with a minimum of 2 videos, and digital audio with a minimum of 4 audio files), status reports, a final report, and implementation and management services. All deliverables are fixed quantities of one unit. The worksheet is structured for a Year 1 contract term with an optional Year 2 extension at the proposer's discretion. Proposers must complete pricing for deliverables and provide hourly rates for two contractor roles: project manager and specialist. The RFP Addendum 1, which includes the cost worksheet, was posted on October 12, 2026.

The FTB's anticipated maximum budget for this engagement is $450,000.00, with the state seeking competitive and cost-effective proposals. Proposers must complete the yellow cells in the cost worksheet columns for Year 1 and optional Year 2 deliverable costs, extended costs, and applicable sales tax based on location (Sacramento, San Francisco Bay Area, Fresno, Los Angeles, or San Diego). All quoted unit costs, extended costs, and hourly rates are binding for the contract term. Costs for unanticipated tasks shall not exceed five percent of the total agreement value and will be charged at the quoted deliverable costs or hourly rates. The worksheet includes auto-generated formulas for the evaluated subtotals, sum of hourly rates, and evaluated grand total that are used for evaluation purposes only and are not binding on the contracting agency.
