    Try:

    =SUM(IF((Data!$C$2:$W$2=C$3)*(Data!$B$4:$V$15=$B4)*ISNUMBER(Data!$E$4:$Y$15),Data!$E$4:$Y$15))

    confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER
    not just ENTER and copied down and/or across if you have other headers...
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    After you enter in the formula, making sure the cell is active (hit F2), you hold the CTRL and SHIFT keys down, then press ENTER.. You should see { } brackets appear around the formula that confirms you entered it in correctly as an array formula.
