Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The budget for this bid cannot be determined with certainty, but it can be estimated based on the scope of the project. The Buffalo Board of Education is seeking bids for New York State beef and chicken for the 2026-2027 school year, which suggests a significant quantity of food products. Assuming an average cost of $5 per pound of beef and $3 per pound of chicken, and considering the district has approximately 34,000 students, the total budget could be in the range of $500,000 to $2 million per year, depending on the specific terms of the contract and the prices offered by the bidders. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the quantity of food products required, the prices offered by the bidders, and the terms of the contract.
