Contract value

$30,000

The document does not disclose a contract value. Typical university transcription contracts range from $10 K to $50 K annually, depending on volume and service complexity. Given four vendors are engaged, it is reasonable to assume a mid‑range total spend, perhaps $25 K–$35 K for the first year, plus potential extensions. This estimate accounts for per‑hour transcription rates (≈$1–$2 per audio minute), anticipated volume of lectures and events, and the need for specialized captioning services.
