Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

Based on the information provided, the budget for this contract is likely to be substantial, as it involves providing vision insurance coverage to a large group of people. However, the exact budget amount is not specified in the document. A rough estimate can be made based on the number of employees, retirees, and dependents who will be covered under the plan. Assuming an average annual premium cost per person of $100, and an estimated 10,000 people covered under the plan, the total budget could be around $1,000,000 per year. However, this is a very rough estimate and the actual budget could be higher or lower, depending on various factors such as the specific terms of the contract, the number of people covered, and the administrative costs associated with the plan.
