Contract value

$60,000

The solicitation notes an average volume of 25‑30 deceased bodies per month (≈300‑360 per year). The awarded bid lists a unit price of $200 per transport. Multiplying the midpoint volume (≈330 transports) by $200 yields an estimated contract value of $66,000 for the base one‑year term. Accounting for possible extensions (up to two additional years) could increase the total to roughly $198,000 if the same rate continues. Therefore a reasonable ballpark estimate for the initial year is about $60,000–$70,000.
