Strategy for requirements less than 25K

• Evaluation will be based on median 10 including
  hardware, installation
• Evaluated median price will be based on the
  basket of goods
• Additional items from the same series meeting the
  technical requirements will be considered but not
  included in the median calculation
• Additional items must offer the same discount as
  the basket of goods to be considered

Strategy for requirements from 25K - 150K

• Volume discounts will be utilized with
  e-purchasing and can be increased or decreased
  only on a monthly basis. Discounts offered will
  never be less than the original quote.
• Additional layouts may be added to e- purchasing
  provided there is competition, ie. Two
  manufacturers offering the same items
• E-purchasing will be modified to incorporate only
  environmental attributes, provided there is
  competition in what is being offered, ie. Two
  manufacturers offering the same attributes
