Budget estimate

$30,000 – $70,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value. Based on the estimated 72 tests per year (36 structural + 36 dielectric) and typical market rates for specialized high‑voltage and ultrasonic testing (approximately $400‑$800 per test), the annual spend could range from $30,000 to $70,000. Additional costs may include travel, reporting, and insurance compliance, pushing the high end upward. Therefore a reasonable estimate is $30‑$70 K per year.
