Indirect Cost rate proposal

About

Indirect cost rate proposal is the process of identifying and recouping costs that are not directly associated with a specific project or program but are necessary for the overall functioning of an organization. It is a multi-faceted process that encompasses several stages.

We offer indirect cost rate proposals that are based on a thorough analysis of your organization's unique needs, existing operational structure, contracts and overall financial health.

A team of financial experts, lawyers, accountants, grant advisors and government relations experts as well as business consultants work together to help our clients plan and execute cost allocation plans, indirect cost rates and assist in planning for the next cycle.

01

The first stage is the identification of indirect costs, where all indirect costs are meticulously identified and classified.

02

The second step is to assess “cost allocation” which is the appropriation of indirect costs to ensure costs are allocated to the relevant cost centers, based on a predetermined allocation method

03

The third stage is the analysis of indirect costs to ensure accuracy, fairness, and compliance with standard accounting practices and regulations.

04

uProfyt then reviews the internal controls and financial systems in place followed by cross functional meetings within the organization to redraft the cost allocation sheet.

05

Our fifth step is to assess if the organization is eligible to apply for cost recovery.

06

uProfyt reviews all contracts and grant awards to analyze the clauses about indirect cost rates and cost recovery options.

07

Our firm conducts an extensive research about available funding options and grants which have unused monies.

08

This is followed by submitting a proposal to funding agency and getting the cost recovery rates approved

09

Then the available monies are tapped and funding is debited to cover the indirect costs as per the cost allocation plan
