Contract value

$1,000,000

The contract requires staffing a municipal pool (8‑13 lifeguards daily) and four beaches (3‑5 lifeguards daily), plus gate‑keepers (2 at the pool, 1 per beach). Assuming a 60‑day seasonal operation each year, total staff‑days approximate 1,920 per season. At an estimated average labor cost of $160 per staff‑day (including wages, benefits, and overhead), the annual cost is roughly $307,000. Over three contract years (2024‑2026) this yields about $921,000. Adding equipment provision, administrative overhead, and a modest contingency (~10‑15 %) raises the total to roughly $1.0 million. Therefore, a reasonable ballpark value for the entire contract is about one million U.S. dollars.
