Budget estimate

$150,000 – $500,000

No budget is disclosed. Based on typical costs for a custom e‑commerce platform with design, integration, hosting, and multi‑year support for a public agency, a reasonable estimate would be between $150,000 and $500,000. Lower end assumes a basic storefront with limited integration; upper end assumes extensive branding, custom integrations, higher traffic hosting, and several years of maintenance.
