      <image:title>Education Success Stories - Major Research University</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge: When facing the need to reduce and control costs, one of the largest areas of spend was equipment maintenance. The University had almost 400 separate contracts (with multiple vendors and expiration dates) encompassing more than 700 pieces of equipment with varying exclusions and limitations.  Solution: Financial Assessment - Customized Equipment Maintenance Program.  Vendor relationships and response levels were unaffected and in many cases improved due to competition for the time and material service revenue across the campus.  Results: Total Maintenance Contract Spend $7.5M; Hard Dollar Cost Savings $2.7M.  The University benefited greatly from the new service delivery model through increased uptime of equipment, identification of high frequency repair items and guaranteed hard dollar savings.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Education Success Stories - School District</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge: The school district was looking for ways to automate their payment process and increase revenue back to the district. Solution: Electronic Payment Solution Results: Solution was up and running 10 days after signing the contract. Monthly rebate is $13K. Increased back-office efficiencies and increased vendor participation while enhancing the monthly rebate.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Education Success Stories - Independent School District</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge: Needed to reduce utility costs by replacing old, inefficient equipment with new, more energy-efficient HVAC systems.  Solution: Collected all equipment data, performed energy calculations, completed grant application, and submitted the application to State Energy Conservation Office (SECO), all on behalf of the district. Also, served as the District’s prime contractor and provided project management and construction management, and handled all grant administration and grant reporting required by SECO. Results: Upgrades save the district $60K annually on utility costs. The entire project was funded by the grant, with no out-of-pocket contribution from the district.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Commercial Success Stories - Mid-size Regional Financial Institution</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge: Senior Bank Officers recognized the need to centralize the on-going management of equipment maintenance to reduce both the administrative burden and ever increasing cost. The client had over 100 separate contracts with more than 20 vendor relationships on nearly 500 pieces of equipment spread through 5 separate charters.  Solution: Financial analysis resulted in a comprehensive maintenance program that addressed the organization’s initiatives to centralize maintenance under one program resulting in reduced maintenance costs and administrative tasks Results: Hard-Dollar Cost Savings is $220K (21%); Administrative Savings $161K. Proprietary Dispatch program allowed the organization a vehicle to achieve their goals for a one-stop solution for service repair requests.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Commercial Success Stories - Paint Manufacturer</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge: The organization had an e-Payment program through their lending bank for several years. Current rebate earned was below expectations. Solution: Replaced e-Payment program. Robust enrollment process maximized results. Results: Within 2 weeks of converting, there was an additional $58M of annual vendor spend enrolled (+120% increase). The total annual vendor payment throughput after full enrollment is estimated over $125M (3X the bank program). At full enrollment, the annual rebate will be over $1.5M versus the $600K through the prior program.  </image:caption>

      <image:title>Government Success Stories - County Government</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge: The County was feeling pressure to reduce spending and the maintenance budgets were considered a target for review. Although the Purchasing Manager was concerned about the recent rise in overall spending on maintenance, the real issue was the loss of control and the mix of coverages. Solution: Equipment Maintenance financial assessment. Results: Hard-Dollar cost savings $86K (28%); asset management control of equipment by tagging each item; numerous real-time online management reports; improved communication through a single point of contact; service based optimization by reducing administrative burden with one Purchase Order.</image:caption>
