Schedule B - Pricing.docx

This is a pricing schedule submission document for Request for Proposal No. 260000002479, issued by the State of Michigan for Workforce Development Layoff Aversion services. Contractors are required to submit a completed pricing schedule detailing all costs associated with the proposed contract activities, including staffing, tasks, hourly rates, and total project cost estimates. The pricing schedule may be submitted in modifiable formats such as Microsoft Word or Excel, or in non-modifiable formats such as PDF. Failure to complete the pricing schedule as requested may result in proposal disqualification.

All price proposals must include comprehensive costs covering one-time or setup charges, fees, and any potential expenses the contractor may charge the State, such as shipping and handling, per-piece pricing, and palletizing. Contractors are encouraged to offer quick payment terms with a specified percentage discount off invoices if payment is received within a designated number of days after invoice receipt. Contractors must certify that prices were developed independently without consultation, communication, or agreement with other contractors. Processing time for payment to reach the contractor's financial institution is excluded from the quick payment term calculation.
