Budget estimate

$30,000 – $80,000

The solicitation notes that contracts valued at $100,000 or more trigger additional notification procedures, implying the anticipated contract value is likely below that threshold. Based on typical pricing for a Thorlabs Micro PL System (which can range from $30,000 to $80,000 depending on configuration and accessories), a reasonable estimate for the award amount is between $30,000 and $80,000. Factors influencing the final amount include the exact component list, optional accessories, volume discounts, and any applicable South Carolina preference adjustments.
