Microsoft_Word_Document1.docx General: Offeror is to provide a cost/price proposal and accompanying narrative as part of their proposal in response to the solicitation. FAR 15.403-5(b) allows the contracting officer to specify the format of cost or pricing data or data other than certified cost or pricing data. The completed enclosed spreadsheets shall be part of the cost/price proposal. This is a required flow down requirement, and therefore shall be submitted for the prime offeror AND for any and all divisions and subcontractors proposed to perform effort in response to this solicitation. The information will be evaluated for acceptability, fairness, and reasonableness based on the cost/price analysis and cost realism analysis (cost clins only) criteria in FAR 15.404-1. Please enter the requested data in the light blue shaded areas in the Labor-Cost Detail spreadsheet and in the Indirect Rate Summary spreadsheet. The spreadsheets are designed to automatically compute and populate other cells in the Excel spreadsheets and workbooks.

Section B Worksheet: The Section B worksheet imports data from the Labor- Cost Detail Spreadsheet and ODC – Cost Detail spreadsheet and is used as a basis for the proposed formal Section B.

Cost Summary Worksheet: This spreadsheet is for Government analysis purposes. It is populated from the Labor-Cost Detail spreadsheet and the ODC – Cost Detail spreadsheet.

Labor-Cost Detail Worksheet:

General: Enter the requested data in the blue shaded cells. It may be necessary for each offeror to revise the number of rows, columns, and/or formulas to reflect differences or nuances in the offeror's accounting and estimating systems. However, it is requested that the general format be maintained as much as possible for cost/price analysis and contract administration purposes.

NOTE 1: Offerors are to enter their proposed positions, hours and cost for the phase-in period (60 days).

NOTE 2: Column a of the Labor- Detail Spreadsheets contains labor categories. During contract performance these categories ostensibly may be performed by the prime contractor and/or other divisions or subcontractors. The offeror is to enter a P in Col c if the effort is to be performed by the prime contractor, and a S if performed by another division or subcontractor. Enter the name of the division or contractor in Col d. If the particular individual category is to be performed by more than one entity, the offeror will be required to insert additional row(s) under the labor category and to allocate the Col b hours for the individual category among the Col b cells in the original and inserted rows to reflect the proposed performance during the contract. After this allocation, the total of the original and inserted rows under the individual category shall total to the number of hours proposed for the respective labor category.

NOTE 3 Please enter the base labor rate for the labor categories listed. The base labor rate is the rate actual paid to the employee EXCLUSIVE of social security, federal unemployment, state unemployment, workman's compensation, and non-statutory fringe benefits (i.e. 401K, vacations, holidays, etc), overhead, G&A, and fee. For proprietary reason, subcontractors may provide this information directly to the Contracting Officer if the subcontractor chooses not to disclose this information to the offeror.

NOTE 4: Apply fringe/overhead to prime offeror derived rates. "Sample Fringe-OHWorksheet" provides a sample to be used to compute fringe/overhead. Provide a schedule and describe all elements included in overhead and fringe benefit rate. See attached sample fringe-oh worksheet. Fringe/overhead shall include social security, federal unemployment, state unemployment, workman's compensation, and non-statutory fringe benefits (i.e. 401K, vacations, holidays, etc). If the offeror's accounting system applies fringe and overhead separately, then include separate columns for the application of fringe and overhead as appropriate for the offeror's accounting/estimating system.

NOTE 5: This field will automatically calculate the prime hourly burdened rate before the application of G&A and fee, if the prime is proposing the use of a subcontractor, please enter the subcontractor billing rate (if performed by a subcontractor) BEFORE application of prime offeror general and administrative (G&A) expense and fixed fee. Therefore, the rate calculated for prime contractor performed rate categories is as follows: rate = prime base labor rate + prime fringe + prime overhead + training overhead + property liability insurance overhead. If the labor category is performed by a subcontractor, the rate entered in Col L is as follows: Rate = sub base rate +sub fringe + sub overhead + sub G&A + sub fee (i.e. subcontractor loaded rate EXCEPT for prime G&A and fee).

ODC - Cost Detail Spreadsheet:

NOTE 6: An estimated normalized amount for travel and other direct cost (ODC) has been specified for proposal purposes. Each offeror is to include this amount in their proposal. Any material handling and/or G&A and/or applicable indirect is to be applied as appropriate. Since this is an estimated amount that may or may not occur, no fixed fee will be proposed.

Indirect Rate Summary Worksheet: Please provide the indirect rates by year, and proposed percentage of performance by labor hour for the prime offeror and each division or subcontractor proposed to perform effort on this solicitation. For proprietary reasons, subcontractors may submit the information in the requested format directly to the Contracting Officer. This information is necessary for evaluation purposes and MUST be supplied for the offeror, other divisions, and subcontractors for the offeror's proposal to be considered complete and adequate.

Sample Fringe/Overhead Worksheet: This spreadsheet shows a generally accepted format for fringe benefit and/or overhead pool/base/rate calculations. Fringe benefit and overhead pool, base, and rate calculations are required as part of the offeror's cost/price proposal. The fringe and overhead rates may be calculated together or separately depending on the contactor/subcontractor's accounting system. Please provide a similar schedule for fringe and overhead for each FY for the offeror and each division or subcontractor. Describe as necessary in the cost/price narrative. Please indicate if the rates are based on a forward pricing rate agreement (FPRA) or other signed rate agreement with DCAA and/or DCMA. Subcontractor data may be submitted directly to the Contracting Officer for proprietary reasons.

Sample G&A Worksheet: This spreadsheet shows a generally accepted format for G&A pool/base/rate calculations. G&A pool, base, and rate calculations are required as part of the offeror's cost/price proposal. Please provide a similar schedule for G&A for each FY for the offeror and each division or subcontractor. Describe as necessary in the cost/price narrative. Please indicate if the G&A rates are based on a forward pricing rate agreement (FPRA) or other signed rate agreement with DCAA and/or DCMA. Subcontractor data may be submitted directly to the Contracting Officer for proprietary reasons.
