It differentiates between items priced in the shell, tenant improvements, or government-provided, and those requiring a unit price quote. The document emphasizes that the Building Specific Amortized Capital (BSAC) amount is an estimate, with final costs determined after design, and is subject to negotiation. It serves as a critical tool for aligning security standards with financial planning in federal, state, and local government RFPs and grants.
