Budget estimate

$200,000 – $1,000,000

The notice does not disclose a contract value. Typical university‑wide catering contracts range from a few hundred thousand dollars to over a million, depending on event volume, menu complexity, and contract length (often 12‑24 months). Assuming an average of 30 events per year at $8,000–$30,000 per event, the annual spend could be roughly $240,000 to $900,000. Therefore, a reasonable estimate for the potential budget is between $200 K and $1 M.
