Budget estimate

$45,000 – $60,000

Based on typical market pricing for CHROMID MRSA agar plates (approximately $130–$180 per box of 20 plates) and the requirement of 330 boxes, the contract value is likely in the $45,000‑$60,000 range. Shipping, handling, and any HAZMAT or dry‑ice fees could add a few thousand dollars, but the overall spend is expected to stay below $70,000.
