Project 9045 Proposal
25X1A
19 June 1963
In response to your TWX authorization 3024 received
1 June 1963, enclosed is our cost proposal for the effort necessary to
produce, deliver, and provide flight support for five (5) additional
Lanyard cameras. Also enclosed are copies of the proposed Contract
SCHEDULE, Work Statement and Specification.

The proposal assumes the delivery of he cameras in a configu-
ration complying with TD's 1001/ through 1036itto the extent that those
TD's affect the units. Otherwise, the releases for procurement will be
in accordance with the condition of our drawings as of 1 June 1963. The
five (5) units will incorporate within the scope of the contract any
changes instituted by Itek in the normal course of the. development of
the units being delivered under the existing contract BT-1943. (our
Project 9040).
Several factors were considered in the preparation of this
proposal. Primarily, our latest Cost-to-Complete was considered in de-
riving our labor estimates in the sustaining work areas (such as the
Project Office and Field Engineering). We have taken considerable care
in pricing all sustaining personnel from their predicted time-of-release
from Project 9040 to the conclusion of this new program. In the areas
such as our machine shop, optics shop, etc., the labor estimates were
prepared as a function of the time necessary to produce the hardware in-
volved. The material estimates are based on the needs for five (5)
units plus a 10% contingency for manufacturing extras. This small per-
centage has been used in consideration of a probable useful residual in-
ventory from Project 9040. We would propose that an acceptable technique
will be accomplished at a later date for utilizing that portion of the
9040 inventory on Project 9045. We have also made maximum utilization
of historical cost information in the preparation of this proposal.

An estimate for Spare Parts has not been included in this
Cost Proposal. We will, however, review our requirements when better
historical useage rates are available. Our proposal will then be sub-
mitted in accordance with the Work Statement paragraph concerning Spare
Parts.
The enclosed SCHEDULE, Work Statement, and Specification have2 5X1A
been appropriately revised to reflect the deletion of the qualification
Program and delivery of Ground Support Equipment. We are also recommend-
ing that modifications be made t ster and that
"clean rooms" be provided in the IFinal Assembl
areas. As we discussed previous y, we have estimated the square feet. in
each of these areas and multiplied by Thirty Dollars ($30) per square
foot to derive the price of these modifications for budgetary planning
purposes. At the time of negotiation, we will present firm estimates of
the specific work necessary to obtain clean room conditions for these
areas.
