Contract value

$350,000

The solicitation lists four possible contract value ranges (< $100 k, $100 k‑$250 k, $250 k‑$500 k, $500 k‑$1 M) but does not disclose the exact figure. Given the extensive scope (conceptual and final design for two remote sites, permitting, environmental studies, and O&M manuals) and typical engineering rates for Alaska, a realistic estimate falls in the $250 k‑$500 k bracket. Assuming an average hourly rate of $150 for senior engineers and a total effort of roughly 2,000 hours (including travel, site visits, and reporting), the cost would be about $300,000. Adding modest expenses for travel and permits pushes the estimate toward $350,000. Therefore a reasonable ball‑park value is approximately $350 k.
