Contract value

$25,000

The solicitation does not disclose a dollar amount. Calibration and preventive maintenance contracts for high‑end microscopes typically range from $400 to $800 per instrument per year, depending on brand and service level. Assuming a mid‑point of $600 per microscope for 38 units yields an estimate of 38 × $600 = $22,800. Adding a modest contingency (≈10 %) for travel, parts, and reporting brings the ballpark to roughly $25,000. Therefore, a reasonable estimate for the contract value is in the low‑tens‑of‑thousands USD range.
