Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $50,000,000

The budget for this opportunity is likely to be substantial, given the scope of the project and the requirement for a final Top Secret Facility Clearance. The contract type is Firm Fixed Price, which suggests that the budget will be a fixed amount. The period of performance is from July 2021 to June 2026, which is a relatively long period. The budget may be influenced by factors such as the complexity of the communication services, the number of suitably equipped aircraft users, and the level of security and cybersecurity required. A rough estimate for the budget could be in the range of $10 million to $50 million.
