Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate without more information about the scope of work and the number of meals to be provided. However, considering the average cost of food service per person per day, a rough estimate for a small to medium-sized detention home could be around $500,000 to $2 million per year, depending on the number of residents and the duration of the contract. This estimate may be influenced by factors such as the quality of food, the number of meals served, and the length of the contract.
