Contract value

$150,000

No contract value is disclosed. Typical commercial‑grade drones range from $5,000 to $25,000 each, and a district‑wide acquisition could involve anywhere from 5 to 20 units plus training and support. Assuming a mid‑range $12,000 per drone and a purchase of 10 units, the hardware cost would be about $120,000. Adding estimated integration, training, and warranty services (≈ 20 % of hardware cost) brings the total to roughly $150,000. Therefore a reasonable ball‑park estimate for the contract value is in the low‑six‑figure range.
