Total Project Budget Template for Project Scope and Budget

Notes
This template was prepared by the MSBA as a tool to assist districts and their teams in the understanding of
MSBA policies and practices: their potential impact on the MSBAs calculation of a potential Basis of Total
Facilities Grant; and potential Total Maximum Facilities Grant. This template does not contain a final, exhaustive
list of all evaluations which the MSBA may use in determining whether items are eligible for reimbursement by the
MSBA.
Yellow Highlighted Cells include formulas which should not be overwritten in the submitted version of the Total
Project Budget Form.
The MSBA will perform an independent analysis based on a review of information and estimates entered into the
Total Project Budget Template submitted by the District for the proposed school project. The MSBA's analysis
may differ from the analysis performed by the district.
All costs associated with ineligible construction items (refer to 963 CMR 2.16(5) for more information) including
design, permitting, construction monitoring, testing etc. are to be identified and included in the Ineligible Cost
Column.
If the project is to include alternates, all construction costs must be included within the Estimated Budget of the
alternate. Associated management and design costs are to be carried as scope excluded items within the related
categories above. If more than three alternates are being considered add rows to the template and list each
alternate separately and include separate budgets for each alternate.
Data Entry
Enter the District and School Names into the top of the form
Enter the Submittal Date

categories. If the project is to be based on CM@R, enter 0 for the D/B/B budget categories.
