Hi Ceci,
We were discussing the expanded contract for IPM and the ~500 distributed
SAP printers at Monday's meeting. We assume there will need to be
a discovery project to determine if IPM is a better tool for managing
these printers vs APS. As you know, there's a 180 day fuse on the
special pricing to expand IPM. MIT might decide to go ahead and pay
the additional fees for expanding IPM if we can't complete the discovery
project <=180 days or if the upgrade price is cheap enough to take
the risk to buy the upgrade before completing the discovery effort (how's
that sentence structure, MEB???).
When is the 180 days up? What is the cost to expand our IPM license
to handle an infinite number of printers (or the additional ~500 SAP
printers if that doesn't bring us to the unlimited threshold)? I'm
assuming both answers are easy to get from the final contract. Thanks
in advance.
