The guidance supports review of RFP/RFQ and small purchase actions by comparing a Grantee Estimated Cost Sheet to a firm’s Cost Detail Worksheet, focusing on wages, total hours, and level of effort. Independent estimates, negotiation of fair and reasonable profit, and compliance with 2 CFR 300.323 are emphasized, while prohibited methods are excluded.","Sample Document:  COST ANALYSIS\nDescription: This document is provided for Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) grantees looking for an example of a cost analysis for professional services.\nSource of Document: This document was excerpted from a Clark County Washington Procurement Procedures for its CDBG program and modified to show typical staff review procedures. This document is not an official HUD document and has not been reviewed by HUD counsel. It is provided for informational purposes only.\nHow to use this document: Chapters 3 and 4 of the CDBG-DR Procurement Toolkit address Cost/Price Analysis.  This analysis could be used for review of costs for RFP/RFQ proposals and small purchase procurements.\nThe grantee should complete the Grantee Estimated Cost Sheet following this introduction. The Grantee Estimated Cost Sheet is designed to be filled out by grantee prior to issuing the RFP/RFQ for professional services.  The Cost Detail Worksheet is intended to be filled out by the firm responding to the RFP/RFQ and included in their response.  The Grantee Estimated Cost Sheet is compared to the Cost Detail Sheet reviewing wages and total hours and level of effort for similar work.  Grantee Staff reviews the staff estimates with those of the selected contractor for amount of time and the labor costs of the professional services firm to evaluate whether the costs are reasonable.  This review is completed before the consultant signs a contract.\nThe regulations governing Cost/Price analysis are found in 2 CFR 300.323, as follows:\n§ 200.323 Contract cost and price.\n(a) The non-Federal entity must perform a cost or price analysis in connection with every procurement action in excess of the Simplified Acquisition Threshold including contract modifications. The method and degree of analysis is dependent on the facts surrounding the particular procurement situation, but as a starting point, the non-Federal entity must make independent estimates before receiving bids or proposals.\n(b) The non-Federal entity must negotiate profit as a separate element of the price for each contract in which there is no price competition and in all cases where cost analysis is performed. To establish a fair and reasonable profit, consideration must be given to the complexity of the work to be performed, the risk borne by the contractor, the contractor's investment, the amount of subcontracting, the quality of its record of past performance, and industry profit rates in the surrounding geographical area for similar work.\n(c) Costs or prices based on estimated costs for contracts under the Federal award are allowable only to the extent that costs incurred or cost estimates included in negotiated prices would be allowable for the non-Federal entity under Subpart E—Cost Principles of this part. The non-Federal entity may reference its own cost principles that comply with the Federal cost principles.\n(d) The cost plus a percentage of cost and percentage of construction cost methods of contracting must not be used.\nFor More Information\nThis resource is part of the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) Toolkits.
