Budget estimate

$250,000 – $800,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value. A comparable two‑year state park concession for a specialized adventure service typically ranges from a few hundred thousand dollars to under one million, depending on equipment costs, staffing levels, and the negotiated concession fee. Assuming modest equipment investment and operating expenses, a realistic contract value could be roughly $250,000 at the low end (small‑scale operation) to $800,000 at the high end (larger fleet, extensive marketing, higher visitor volume). Factors influencing the final amount include the fee structure set by the agency, anticipated visitor numbers, and the concessionaire’s cost efficiencies.
