Budget estimate

$1,200,000 – $3,500,000

No contract value is disclosed, but large‑format metal additive‑manufacturing systems typically range from $1 million to $3 million for equipment alone, with additional services (installation, training, maintenance) potentially adding 20‑40 % to total cost. Therefore, the expected award amount is likely between $1.2 million and $3.5 million.
