Summary:
|
The Technology Department and Business Office have been engaged in reviewing Chromebook and fitness equipment purchase items as described in previous agenda items. Combining both purchases into a single finance was discussed and ultimately, provided CUSD 200 with the greatest value. Three firms were approached, two submitted lease quotes for both purchases and one submitted a lease quote for only the fitness equipment. Only the two submissions for both purchases were considered. Details of the two submissions are below:
1. First American 4-Year Lease Total = $2,131,046.80 ($2,012,475.20 for Chromebooks and $118,571.60 for fitness equipment). The annual combined lease payment is $532,761.70.
