The top ranked Firm will be required to submit: 1) Proposed percentage that the Firm will markup on any direct costs incurred, if any. Direct cost items, such as equipment purchase or rental, copying, etc. must be charged to the Project Owner at the same actual cost that the Firm is charged by outside vendors or subcontractors, or the same cost the Firm charges other customers.
