Budget estimate

$100,000 – $250,000

No contract value is disclosed. Typical upgrades for a high‑end confocal microscope (software licenses, workstation hardware, installation, and verification) range from roughly $100 k to $250 k depending on the extent of software modules, custom integration, and maintenance terms. Therefore, the expected award value is estimated in that band.
