Budget estimate

$8,000 – $13,000

The solicitation lists 36 distinct sign‑blank line items plus pedestal bases and a cost‑plus markup request for additional items. Assuming an average unit price of $200 – $350 per sign blank (typical for .80 gauge metal blanks with pre‑drilled holes) and a single quantity per line, the base material cost would range from roughly $7,200 to $12,600. Adding the required 5 % bid guarantee, bonding, insurance, and a modest contractor markup (5 %–10 %) pushes the total contract value into an estimated $8,000 – $13,000 over the two‑year base period. This ballpark reflects the modest scope (supply only, no installation) and the City’s requirement that shipping be included, which modestly inflates the price.
