Budget estimate

$30,000 – $100,000

The contract is for a state‑wide supply of FirstWatch lifejackets. Assuming an average unit price of $150–$250 and a modest order size of 200–400 units per year, the annual spend would fall roughly between $30,000 and $100,000. Extensions could double that amount. Therefore a reasonable estimate for the contractor’s revenue from this award is $30 k–$100 k, depending on actual quantities ordered and any ancillary services (e.g., training or warranty extensions).
