Budget estimate

$100,000 – $300,000

Based on typical state‑level consulting contracts for food‑service process improvement, the budget is likely in the low‑to‑mid six‑figure range. A small‑scale diagnostic and implementation plan could be $80,000‑$120,000, while a more comprehensive engagement with training and ongoing monitoring could reach $250,000‑$350,000. Therefore a reasonable estimate is $100,000 to $300,000.
