Budget estimate

$400,000 – $1,200,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value, but a 168 MVA auto‑transformer de‑tank, inspection, and full refurbishment typically ranges from $500 k to $1.2 M depending on oil processing, testing equipment, labor rates, and contingency. The inclusion of a 20 % contingency suggests the base scope could be around $400 k–$1 M, pushing the total contract toward $480 k–$1.2 M. Factors influencing the final amount include the condition of the transformer, cost of oil analysis, rental of specialized equipment, and any unforeseen repairs identified during inspection.
