If schools place orders with another vendor, future bids will be less competitive and vendors may drop out of the process. Remember that the other vendors are offering you aggressive pricing to compete with the awarded vendor. The awarded vendor is also providing posters with each order as well as extras for the IASL Award Book committees. Other vendors do not share this poster cost burden.
