Contract value

$75,000

The bid sheet lists numerous fiber‑optic items without unit prices, but typical market prices for Corning fiber‑optic cable range from $2‑$3 per foot, and accessories (splice closures, kits, trays, etc.) range from $100‑$250 each. Using mid‑range assumptions (≈ $2.50/ft for 7,400 ft total ≈ $18,500) plus accessory costs (≈ $30,000) yields an estimated contract value between $45,000‑$55,000. Considering possible higher‑end pricing for specialty parts and a modest contingency, a reasonable ball‑park figure is about $75,000. This estimate aligns with the agency’s mention of a $50,000 threshold for disadvantaged‑business participation, suggesting the contract likely exceeds that level.
