Budget estimate

$1,500,000 – $2,500,000

The solicitation estimates a total spend of approximately $2 million over the life of the contract. Assuming multiple awards and a ten‑year horizon, a single vendor could earn anywhere from $1.5 million (smaller share of contracts) to $2.5 million (larger share or higher‑priced services). Factors influencing the range include the number of contracts awarded, the mix of venue vs. catering services, geographic coverage, and the vendor’s pricing structure.
