Budget estimate

$120,000 – $250,000

The simulator package includes a high‑end PC (Intel i7, RTX 4070), full vehicle cockpit, motion base, and extensive software licenses. Comparable commercial driver‑training simulators range from $100 k to $200 k per unit, with additional accessories (manual transmission package, motion base) adding $20 k–$40 k. Accounting for installation, training, and a first‑year warranty, the total contract value is reasonably estimated between $120 k and $250 k. The estimate assumes a single simulator unit as the primary quantity; if the college orders multiple units, the total could scale proportionally.
