Contract value

$3,330,000

The award lists unit rates that sum to $33.30 per square foot for the eight core items. The solicitation does not disclose total square footage, but typical auxiliary building surface areas at a university of MSU’s size often range between 80,000 and 120,000 sf for interior wall and ceiling surfaces needing repaint. Using a midpoint of 100,000 sf, the contract value would be roughly 100,000 sf × $33.30 = $3,330,000. Even if the actual area is as low as 60,000 sf, the value would be ~$2.0 M; if as high as 150,000 sf, it would approach $5.0 M. Therefore a reasonable ball‑park estimate is about **$3.3 million**. This estimate accounts for the unit‑price structure, the mandatory bid/security thresholds (> $150k), and typical campus auxiliary building inventories.
