Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract value, but background‑check contracts for a regional agency of this size typically range from a few hundred thousand dollars to low‑single‑digit millions. Assuming a moderate volume of screenings across all Council positions and the need for a secure online platform, a reasonable estimate would be between $200,000 and $500,000 for the initial contract period. Factors influencing the final amount include the number of positions screened, the depth of financial screening required, and any integration or reporting services added.
