Budget estimate

$100,000 – $500,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate because the document does not specify a specific amount. However, considering the NAICS code 621991, Blood and Organ Banks, and the SBA Size Standard of $40m annual revenue, it is likely that the budget will be in the range of $100,000 to $500,000. This estimate is based on the assumption that the contractor will need to provide a significant amount of postmortem brain tissue for PTSD research, and the cost of collection, storage, and transportation of the tissue will be substantial. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the quantity and quality of the tissue required, the duration of the contract, and the level of competition among bidders.
