Budget estimate

$100,000 – $2,000,000

No dollar amount is disclosed in the solicitation. However, contracts for specialized scientific instrumentation at a major research university typically range from low‑six‑figure purchases for single‑unit acquisitions to multi‑million‑dollar multi‑instrument packages. Considering the breadth implied by “specialized scientific equipment and instrumentation,” a reasonable estimate is between $100,000 and $2,000,000, depending on the number and complexity of the items procured.
