The new agreement is the result of a Joint effort among several universities within the State University System of Florida yielding deep discounted pricing that will be held firm for first 12 months of the contract term. In addition, FSU's top 250 items were reviewed and added to an FSU specific customer core list with a minimum 5% aggregate savings over current pricing.
