CDOT has decoupled the Annual Direct Salary rates and Indirect Cost Rate reviews in order to help eliminate the "Salary Gap" caused between the time the consultant submits their MPA for renewal and when it is approved.
Decoupling Process
Effective January 1, 2017 CDOT has instituted a voluntary process called "decoupling." Decoupling allows for the Indirect Cost Rate and the Direct Salary review to be separated. This will permit the Consultant the option to submit their annual salary raises more in line with their corporate policy and allow for that raise to be approved prior to their annual MPA renewal date.
