Budget estimate

$3,000,000 – $8,000,000

VDOT caps the contract at $10 million per term, but typical annual expenditures for bridge safety inspection programs of this size range between $3 million and $8 million, depending on the number of bridges, depth of inspections, and any required specialized services (e.g., underwater dives). Therefore, a realistic earnings estimate for a qualified consultant would be roughly $3 million–$8 million over the contract term.
