Budget estimate

$60,000 – $90,000

Based on the estimated volume of 4,400 gallons and typical market prices for high‑grade synthetic transmission fluid (approximately $12‑$18 per gallon), the material cost alone ranges from $52,800 to $79,200. Adding delivery, handling, certification, and administrative fees (roughly $5‑$10 k) brings the total contract value to an estimated $60,000‑$90,000. The final budget will depend on the vendor’s unit price, delivery logistics, and any required testing or sample fees.
