Description

The Arkansas Department of Transportation is seeking a qualified vendor to supply high‑visibility, ANSI/ISEA‑107‑2010‑compliant safari‑style safety hats for its workforce.

Budget estimate

$10,000 – $30,000

No contract value is disclosed. Assuming an average cost of $15–$30 per high‑visibility safety hat (including materials, logo printing, and compliance certification), 1,000 hats would generate roughly $15,000–$30,000 in revenue. Adding the mandatory $500 bid bond (which is returned) and potential performance bond fees, the net earnings are likely in the $10,000–$30,000 range. Factors influencing the estimate include actual unit price negotiations, any volume discounts, and ancillary costs for sample production and certification documentation.
