BLN NexGen Indirect Cost System (ICS) Toolkit

Indirect Rates Made Simple — The ICS Toolkit for Small Government Contractors

Stay compliant, defend your rates in audits, and protect your profitability with the BLN NexGen Indirect Cost System (ICS) Toolkit.

Indirect cost rates are one of the most misunderstood — and most critical — elements of government contracting. Misapplied rates can result in disallowed costs, lost revenue, or audit failures.

The ICS Toolkit was designed specifically for small and mid-sized GovCon firms to remove the guesswork.
With it, you can:

• Upload your P&L and automatically calculate Fringe, Overhead, and G&A.
• Stay FAR 31 & DCAA compliant with built-in validations and an Unallowable Cost Tracker.
• Model bases instantly — Direct Labor, TCI, or Value-Added — to see the impact on your rates.
• Ensure travel compliance with an automated helper aligned to FAR 31.205-46.
• Be audit-ready with reconciliation reports, rate justification logs, and policy templates.

What’s Included:

• Excel-based ICS Template (prebuilt and audit-ready)
• Comprehensive White Paper (20+ pages explaining indirect rate structures and GovCon best practices)
• Quick Start Guide (2–3 pages for fast onboarding)

Don’t wait until DCAA or an auditor flags your costs.
