# EXPENDABLE LAUNCH VEHICLES INTEGRATED SUPPORT

**[WORKLOAD INDICATORS]{.underline}**

**Workload Indicators** are provided to offerors for bidding purposes
only and are considered estimates reflecting "business as usual" based
on historical data and/or Governments best estimates of the scope of the
requirements specified. In providing these best estimates in some cases
the Government has averaged the level of support from a typically
changing launch manifest. These indicators may be affected by offerors
innovations as well as changing customer requirements. Additionally,
workload indicators are affected by other Section J attachments.
