Taking each component in turn: People - Amount paid by Contractor for Contractor’s people + % people overheads = sub total for Contractor’s people - Amount paid by Subcontractor for Subcontractor’s people + % people overheads = sub total for Subcontractor’s people Plant and Materials - Payments for purchasing Plant and Materials = sub total for Plant and Materials Design - (Total hours worked by Subcontractor’s employees x hourly rates in Contract Data) + % design overheads = sub total for design The direct and subcontracted fee percentages are then applied to the relevant components to arrive at a total, in your case as the fee percentages are the same it doesn’t matter but it would be important to apply it correctly if they were different. --- _[View the full topic](https://reachback.builtintelligence.com/t/nec3-ecc-shorter-schedule-of-cost-components-percentages/6922)._
