Global Intelligence Contract Draft RFP - INSCOM - U.S. Army

o The offeror shall state whether the cost accounting system will account for direct labor costs by the
proposed labor categories.
• Indirect Costs. The offeror shall provide a cost breakdown of the proposed cost by the offeror fiscal year for
each CLIN. The cost breakdown shall be in sufficient detail to identify each significant cost element and the
base to which each indirect rate is applied.
o The offeror shall attach the latest indirect cost projections showing the details used in the computation of
all the indirect rates used in this offer (i.e. dollar amounts for various accounts compromising the
overhead and/or General and Administrative (G&A) pools). The offeror also shall provide projections of
the allocation basis (including their composition) and show the rate calculations for each offeror’s fiscal
year involved.
o If the offeror’s indirect rates have been audited by any Government agency, the offeror shall state by
whom the audit was made and when, the rates approved, and the period for which they are effective. The
offeror shall submit a copy of the latest signed forward pricing rate agreement including all applicable
rates. If the proosed rates are significantly different, the reason(s) shall be stated. The name, address, and
phone number of the Government agency that performed the audit shall be provided. The projected
indirect rates for subsequent periods shall be provided.
• Subcontract Costs. The offeror shall submit a listing of the proposed subcontractors and interdivisional
transfers (including vendors), if applicable, showing (a) the supplier, (b) description of effort, (c) type of
contract, (d) price and hours proposed by each, and (e) price and hours included in prime’s proposal to the
Government. The offeror shall include a separate entry in this section for each subcontractor/interdivisional
so that these costs can be easily tracked to the specific subcontractor/interdivisional cost proposal.
Subcontractor/interdivisional proposals should match the hours and dollars carried by the prime for any
subcontract effort proposed. The submission of a subcontractor proposal that does not agree with the prime’s
proposal is not useful for analysis or evaluation, and detracts from the credibility of the prime’s proposal.
