Fabricated Equipment
A fabricated equipment item is a unique item which cannot be acquired off-the-shelf, has a useful life of more than one year, and is made of material and components which cumulatively cost $5,000 or greater (excluding labor costs). Allowable costs for fabricated equipment items include materials and non-salary services, such as shop charges, vendor labor, shipping, installation, and operating software, that directly make up a fabricated equipment item.
