a.
Cost Loading Activities: Costs for incremental design preparation

milestone(s). Equipment costs will be assigned to their
respective Procurement Activities (i.e., the delivery milestone
activity). Costs for installation of the material/equipment

of inspection/testing activities will not be less than [10][_____]
percent of the total costs for Procurement and Construction
Activities. Evenly disperse overhead and profit to each activity
over the duration of the project. The total of all cost loaded
activities; including costs for material and equipment delivered
for installation on the project, and labor and construction
equipment loaded construction activities, shall total to 100
percent of the value of the contract.
b.

have a detailed breakdown of the contract price, giving quantities
for each of the various kinds of work, unit prices, etc. These

equipment usage and is the basis of activity
duration estimates. Since these decisions are the
responsibility of the Contractor's management
process, the information value to the Contracting
Officer is in assuring that the planned labor and
equipment are being supplied throughout the course
of the project.

the number of workers per day by trade, hours per day by trade and
total expected hours used by trade during the execution of the
activity. If no workers are required for an activity, then the
activity shall be identified as using zero workers per day. All
labor resources loaded into the schedule shall be non-driving and
will not be used to calculate activity cost or duration. Resource
leveling shall not be used.[ Actual labor resource expended on an
