Budget estimate

$75,000 – $250,000

The RFQ does not disclose a budget, but typical municipal purchases of bulk citric acid (50% concentration) range from a few tens of thousands up to low‑hundreds of thousands of dollars depending on volume and contract length. Assuming a mid‑size annual requirement, the city could spend roughly $75,000 to $250,000 on this commodity. Factors influencing the final amount include the total gallons ordered, delivery schedule, and any volume discounts negotiated.
