Budget Estimate (AI):

$50,000 – $150,000

A gyratory compactor of the described capability typically costs between $50,000 and $150,000 depending on brand, optional data‑logging features, and included accessories. Since the solicitation does not disclose a ceiling, a reasonable estimate for the contract value is in that range. Factors influencing the final price include: brand/model chosen, freight (FOB destination), any required custom accessories, and the cost of obtaining a Superpave recommendation letter.
