Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

The solicitation covers a full suite of specialized drilling sensors, wireless interfaces, data acquisition hardware, software, installation, and training. Similar MWD system contracts for state transportation agencies typically range from a few hundred thousand dollars to over a million, depending on equipment complexity and site work. Given the breadth of lots (multiple sensors, custom builds, software, and training), a reasonable estimate is $200,000–$500,000 for the complete solution. Factors influencing the final amount include the number of sensors required, the extent of cabling and integration, and any optional training extensions.
