SECTION L - INSTRUCTIONS, CONDITIONS, AND NOTICES TO OFFERORS

Update Section L.5.4.2.13 - L.5.4.2.13(a)(5):

FROM:

L.5.4.2.13 Indirect Expense Rates.

L.5.4.2.13(a) Indirect rates allocate indirect costs such as overhead, general & administrative (G&A) expense, and fringe benefit costs.

The Offeror shall provide the pool and base costs or FPRAs for all proposed indirect expense rates for itself and all Subcontractor(s) who do not submit a proposal directly to the Government. If a Subcontractor is submitting a Cost/Price proposal directly to the

Government, then that Subcontractor shall also provide the pool and base costs for all proposed indirect expense rates. Offerors shall provide a detailed explanation for indirect expense rates proposed that are not fully supported by the budgetary indirect expense rates and the corresponding supporting pool and base data or FPRA. Offerors shall provide a narrative to crosswalk the variances between the proposed and budgetary information. Additionally, Offerors shall provide a narrative to crosswalk the variances between the historical and budgetary information (i.e., pool - L.5.4.2.13(a)(3) & base - L.5.4.2.13(a)(4)), to include an explanation of how the current proposal is incorporated into the indirect rate pools and bases.

Proposals also shall include an appropriately detailed description of how proposed indirect rates have been applied to proposed direct costs. All numerical data shall be provided in a Microsoft Excel file with accompanying explanatory notes in Word or PDF.

L.5.4.2.13(a)(1) When proposing Indirect Expense Rates, compliance with the Service Contract Act (SCA) (Attachment 0007, Wage

Determination) and the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) (Attachment 0008) is required. For evaluation and proposal submission purposes only, Offerors should assume a 03 December 2024 NTP date. Offerors (including Subcontractors) shall use the fringe benefit(s) included with the solicitation (Attachment 0007, Wage Determination) and shall not include any escalation for the entire period of performance. Offerors (including Subcontractors) shall use the CBA fringe benefit(s) included with the solicitation (Attachment 0008) through the final year of the CBA and shall not include escalation through the remainder of the period of performance. As the CBA expires on 31 JANUARY 2026 Offerors (including Subcontractors) will continue to use the last applicable fringe benefit(s) in force

(without escalating) for the remainder of the period of performance.

L.5.4.2.13(a)(2) Indirect Cost Rate = Indirect Cost Pool divided by Indirect Cost Allocation Base

L.5.4.2.13(a)(3) Pool: A descriptive summary of the costs proposed in each pool, including the details for each pool in both account/line-item name and dollar value, is required to be submitted in the Offeror's proposal for itself and all Subcontractor(s) who do not submit a proposal directly to the Government. If a Subcontractor is submitting a Cost/Price proposal directly to the Government, then that Subcontractor shall also provide a descriptive summary of the costs proposed in each pool. An indirect cost pool is a logical grouping of indirect costs with a similar relationship to the cost objectives. For example, maintenance overhead pools include indirect costs that are associated with maintenance effort. Proposals also shall include an appropriately detailed description of how proposed indirect rates have been applied to proposed direct costs.

L.5.4.2.13(a)(4) Base: A descriptive summary of the costs proposed in each indirect cost allocation base, including the details for each base in both account/line-item name and dollar value, is required to be submitted in the Offerors proposal for itself and all

Subcontractor(s) who do not submit a proposal directly to the Government. If a Subcontractor is submitting a Cost/Price proposal directly to the Government, then that Subcontractor shall describe the indirect cost allocation base. The indirect cost allocation base for overhead rates is usually labor dollars; for G&A rates, the base is usually Total Cost Input or Value Added; and for fringe benefit rates the base is labor dollars.
