Budget estimate

$50,000 – $150,000

The contract is for field inspections of a utility pole inventory that likely runs into the low‑hundreds of poles across the service area. Assuming an average inspection cost of $300‑$500 per pole, total contract value could range from roughly $50,000 to $150,000, depending on the exact number of poles and any additional reporting requirements.
