Writing an RFP for MFDs

In a perfect world, removal of old equipment and installation of new equipment happens simultaneously. In the real world, your old leases may expire on different dates. Regardless, it's very important to have your new agreement end on a specific date for all devices, no matter when they are finally installed. That way, you can go out for competitive bids every three or four years. (Five years is probably too long, given today's rapid changes in technology.)
