Some universities buy the laundry equipment for student housing outright rather than awarding a concession, equipping the common laundry rooms themselves. When they do, it is an equipment purchase scored like any other.
What the solicitation contains
A student housing laundry equipment solicitation sets the number and type of common use washers and dryers, the durability for heavy shared student use, the payment system if any, the install across the buildings, and the brand name or equal terms.
What decides the award
An equipment purchase award turns on the durability for heavy shared use, the install logistics across housing, the payment system, and the approved equal data. The agent flags the equipment count and type, the durability, the install, and the approved equal so a dealer bids the right configuration.
How the agent handles it
Our agent reads each campus laundry opportunity, tells an outright equipment purchase from a concession, and scores the purchase for an equipment dealer against your common use lines and your install capability.
The agent separates the campus equipment purchases from the concessions and scores each correctly. See the higher education and public housing laundry bid agent in the interactive demo.
