Budget estimate

$600,000 – $1,000,000

The budget for this contract can be estimated based on the scope of work and the term of the contract. Assuming the contractor will provide food services to approximately 100 courses per year, with an average of 20 students per course, the total number of meals served per year would be around 20,000. With a contract term of 48 months, the total number of meals served would be around 80,000. Using an average cost per meal of $10, the total budget for the contract term would be approximately $800,000. However, this is a rough estimate and the actual budget may vary depending on the contractor's proposal and the State's negotiation.
