COMPUTER HARDWARE PURCHASING

Midwestern Higher Education Compact

The Midwestern Higher Education Compact (MHEC) computing hardware purchasing program is available to NDANO members. While MHEC’s main focus is higher education, nonprofits may also benefit from some of these technology contracts. As an instrumentality of state government, MHEC is required to follow extensive competitive procurement processes. Through its committees, MHEC undertakes the time and expense of the RFP process, thereby freeing up education and government entities of this burden. The participating entities can purchase the good or service through the MHEC program knowing that the due diligence in selecting the vendor has already been done. MHEC has negotiated with a number of vendors. Check the MHEC website and click on the hardware vendor to determine your eligibility to purchase.
