Contract value

$250,000

The bid solicitation does not disclose a total contract value. However, municipal lubricant purchases for a city of Mobile’s size typically range from a few hundred thousand dollars to low‑millions, depending on volume. The bid includes multiple line items (engine oils, hydraulic fluids, greases, ATFs) and specifies bulk deliveries to on‑site tanks, suggesting a relatively sizable order. Assuming an average price of $5–$7 per gallon for engine oils, $10–$12 per gallon for synthetic ATFs, and $30–$40 per drum for greases, and estimating modest quantities (e.g., 5,000 gallons of oil, 2,000 gallons of ATF, 50 drums of grease), the total could fall between $150,000 and $300,000. Adding administrative fees, taxes, and potential extensions, a reasonable ballpark is roughly $250,000.
