Budget estimate

$1,000,000 – $2,000,000

The advertisement does not disclose the contract value, but typical motorcoach buses range from $300,000 to $500,000 each. Assuming the university intends to acquire 3–4 buses, the total contract could plausibly fall between $1 million and $2 million. This estimate considers unit cost, possible customization, delivery, and any ancillary equipment.
