Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The notice does not disclose a contract value. Based on typical costs for specialized helicopter pilot qualification programs—including instructor fees, aircraft utilization, curriculum development, and support services—a single‑source award for the Sikorsky SK‑64 could range from roughly $500,000 for a limited, initial‑only course up to $2,000,000 if recurrent training cycles and extensive support are included. The final amount will depend on the number of pilots, flight hours required, and any ancillary services (e.g., simulators, curriculum updates).
