DOS Domestic Light Construction Multiple Award IDIQ Requirement

Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a pricing spreadsheet intended for bidders to submit their proposed labor rates for various zones. It requires bidders to provide fully burdened pricing for each labor category within a selected zone.

• The spreadsheet contains multiple sheets, each corresponding to a specific geographic zone (Zone 1: Blackstone, VA; Zone 2: Charleston, SC; Zone 3: Denver, CO; NCR: Washington D.C.).

• Each zone sheet lists numerous labor categories across different functional areas (e.g., Construction Administration, Construction, Quality Control, Engineering disciplines).

• Bidders must complete pricing for the Base Year (2025-2026) and four Option Years (2026-2030) for each labor category in their proposed zone.

• For zones where a bidder is not submitting a proposal, the corresponding sheet should be left empty.

• A "Total Evaluated Price" is calculated per year and overall.

• Bidders must select and propose for only ONE zone.

• Fully burdened pricing must be provided for every labor category in the selected zone's tab.

• Tabs for zones not being proposed on should be left blank.

• The "Total evaluated price" will be used for evaluation purposes only.

This spreadsheet is critical for bidders to detail their proposed costs. Accurate and complete pricing in the selected zone is required for a proposal to be considered for award. The format dictates how cost information must be presented for evaluation.
