Contract value

$250,000

The solicitation does not disclose a dollar ceiling. Typical municipal calibration contracts for a city of Baltimore’s size range from $100k to $200k per year, depending on the number of labs and frequency of service. Assuming an average of $120,000 per year for 22 months (≈1.83 years) yields an estimated contract value of about $220,000‑$250,000. I will adopt a midpoint estimate of $250,000 to reflect potential travel, consumables, and administrative overhead.
