Contract value

$350,000

The solicitation did not disclose a contract value. A typical outdoor campus Wi‑Fi deployment (including site surveys, design, equipment, installation, and limited post‑install support) for a university of Alcorn State’s size usually falls between $200,000 and $500,000, depending on the number of access points, cabling length, and any required structural work. Given the competitive nature (four other bidders) and the award to the “best cost” vendor, it is reasonable to assume the university selected a mid‑range offer. Estimating toward the midpoint yields roughly $350,000. This estimate factors in equipment (access points, controllers), labor for installation and configuration, and a modest support period.
