Contract value

$300,000

The solicitation does not disclose a dollar amount. Legislative consulting and appropriations support for a state entity typically range from a few hundred thousand to low‑single‑million dollars, depending on scope and duration. Given the specialized nature of the work and the fact that only a single vendor is being awarded, a reasonable ballpark estimate would be roughly $300,000 to $500,000 for the contract period. This estimate assumes a modest team size, limited project duration (e.g., one fiscal year), and standard consulting rates for senior policy analysts.
