Budget estimate

$500,000 – $1,500,000

Based on typical institutional food‑service contracts for detention facilities of this size, annual spend often ranges from $500 k to $1.5 M. Assuming a one‑year contract, the award could be within that band; a multi‑year award would multiply the total accordingly. Factors influencing the amount include inmate population, meal frequency, dietary requirements, and ancillary services such as waste disposal.
