Before You Begin
Before proceeding you need to confirm that you have funds available for this
purchase. This can be either through self-funding or a loan.
Loans are only available to schools. A loan may only be provided when a
leased copier/MFD is being replaced with a copier/MFD of equal or lower
speed.
Benefits Of The New Program
Over the coming 12 months the Department of Education and Training
Procurement anticipates savings of $35 million from the significant
reduction DET Procurement achieved off the purchase cost of Imaging
Devices. These savings are part of an ongoing program of centralisation
and cost reduction that will realise $80 million in savings in 2008/09.
