Budget estimate

$500,000 – $1,500,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value, but based on 170 displays (estimated $2,500‑$4,000 per unit) plus installation labor, warranty, and training, the total contract is likely between $0.5 million and $1.5 million. Hardware costs dominate, while installation and support add a moderate premium. Therefore a reasonable ball‑park estimate is $500,000‑$1,500,000.
