Subject: Acceptance FYE 2021 ICR Risk Assessment Review
Dear Josh Stepherson:
Assessment review and the economic hardship approved by our WSDOT Audit Office
of your Indirect Cost Rate (ICR), we have accepted your proposed FYE 2021 ICR of
166.91%. This rate will be applicable for WSDOT Agreements and Local Agency
Contracts in Washington only. This rate may be subject to additional review if
considered necessary by WSDOT. Your ICR must be updated on an annual basis.
Costs billed to agreements/contracts will still be subject to audit of actual costs, based
on the terms and conditions of the respective agreement/contract.
This was not a cognizant review. Any other entity contracting with your firm is
responsible for determining the acceptability of the ICR.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact our office at (360) 705-7019 or via email
consultantrates@wsdot.wa.gov.
Regards;
ERIK K. JONSON
Contract Services Manager
