About を踏まえて
踏まえる is a る-Verb that means 'to tread firmly', but is often used figuratively in regard to taking things into account. Because of this, the combination of the adverbial particle を, and 踏まえる in its て-form can frequently be translated as 'considering (A)', or 'keeping (A) in mind'.
を踏まえて is primarily used in formal situations where (B) is an action being undertaken with (A) as the premise. As this structure begins with を, it will need to follow a noun.

I don’t understand how to know when to use を踏まえて vs を踏まえた. The explanation says:
But then I don’t understand why this examples isn’t を踏まえた:

It depends on what you want to say is based on 以上のこと. If it’s 営業時間の延長 then use a form that can modify nouns like を踏まえた, if it’s 決定いたしました then use a form that doesn’t, like を踏まえて.

Thanks for the reply. However, I’m not following something…
In my head を踏まえた modifies 営業時間の延長. Literally something like, “extended business hours based on the above.” Obviously, this is wrong since that answer isn’t accepted, but I’m not sure why…
