Budget estimate

$250,000 – $400,000

Based on the information provided, the city's current costs for transcription services are 1.5 cents per word for general and legal transcription, $3.00 per audio minute for SpeakWrite/Axon integration with evidence.com, and $9.00 per audio minute for Spanish translation. The city is looking for a vendor to provide these services for a 5-year term. Assuming an average annual utilization of 720,388 words per year, the total cost for the 5-year term could be around $270,000 to $360,000, depending on the pricing structure proposed by the vendor. However, this is a rough estimate and the actual budget could be higher or lower, depending on the vendor's pricing and the city's actual utilization of the services.
