Contract value

$150,000

The public posting provides no monetary value. However, typical debt‑collection contracts for a midsize school district range from $100,000 to $250,000 annually, depending on the volume of delinquent accounts and the fee structure (often a percentage of recovered amounts plus a base fee). St. Mary’s County Public Schools is a moderate‑size district, so a reasonable ballpark is roughly $150,000 for a one‑year term. This estimate assumes a modest portfolio of receivables and a standard industry fee of 15‑20 % of recoveries plus a fixed administrative component.
