Budget estimate

$180,000 – $550,000

The solicitation does not disclose unit prices. Assuming a conservative market range of $500‑$1,500 per vest/armor component, the total quantity (14 items × 26 units = 364 units) yields an estimated contract value between $182,000 (364 × $500) and $546,000 (364 × $1,500). Factors influencing the final amount include negotiated discounts for bulk purchase, any required customizations, and applicable taxes or fees.
