Contract value

$100,000

No explicit dollar amount is provided. A typical sousaphone with a durable case can range from $1,800 to $2,500. Assuming a mid‑range price of $2,200 per unit and a modest order size of 45 instruments (a common band inventory size), the contract value would be roughly 45 × $2,200 = $99,000. Rounding up to account for ancillary accessories, shipping, and potential spare units, a ball‑park estimate is about $100,000. Factors influencing the estimate include the unknown quantity, possible bulk‑order discounts, and any additional support services that may be bundled.
