Salaries: Timesheets that support the hours worked on the project or activity must be
kept. A payroll register, or similar documentation should be maintained. The payroll
register should show gross salary charges, fringe benefits, other deductions and net pay.
If an individual for whom reimbursement is being claimed is paid by the hour, a document
reflecting the hours worked times the rate of pay will be acceptable.
Fringe benefits: Fringe benefits should be supported by invoices showing the amount
paid on behalf of the employee, e.g., insurance premiums paid. If the contract specifically
states that fringe benefits will be based on a specified percentage rather than the actual
cost of fringe benefits, then the calculation for the fringe benefits amount must be shown.
Exception- Governmental entities are not required to provide check numbers or copies of
checks for fringe benefits.
Travel: Reimbursement for travel must be in accordance with s. 112.061, F.S., which
includes submission of the claim on the approved state travel voucher along with
supporting receipts and invoices.
Other direct costs: Reimbursement will be made based on paid invoices/receipts and
proof of payment processing (cancelled/processed checks and bank statements). If
nonexpendable property is purchased using state funds, the contract should include a
provision for the transfer of the property to the State when services are terminated.
Documentation must be provided to show compliance with DMS Rule 60A-1.017, F.A.C.,
regarding the requirements for contracts which include services and that provide for the
contractor to purchase tangible personal property as defined in s. 273.02, F.S., for
subsequent transfer to the State.
Indirect costs: If the contract stipulates that indirect costs will be paid based on a
specified rate, then the calculation should be shown. Indirect costs must be in the
approved agreement budget and the entity must be able to demonstrate that the costs
are not duplicated elsewhere as direct costs. All indirect cost rates must be evaluated for
reasonableness and for allowability and must be allocated consistently.
Contracts between state agencies may submit alternative documentation to
substantiate the reimbursement request,which may be in the form of FLAIR reports
or other detailed reports.
