Budget estimate

$500,000 – $5,000,000

Given the research focus of the CHEERS program and the funding instruments, which include Cooperative Agreement, Grant, and Procurement Contract, it is difficult to estimate the exact budget. However, considering the long-term nature of the project and the involvement of the Air Force Research Laboratory, the budget could range from $500,000 to $5,000,000. This estimate is based on the assumption that the project will require significant resources and funding to support the research and development activities. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the scope of the project, the number of participants, and the duration of the contract.
