I <br /> <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br /> I <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> I <br /> <br />COST COMPARISONS FOR DORAl)US AND EMBEDDED SYSTEMS <br /> FOR SIREN MAINTENANCE <br /> <br />Embedded Systems Inc. <br />Doradus Inc. <br /> <br />$29.50/site/month (paid semi-annualy) <br />3 7.00/site/month (paid quarterly) <br /> <br />Note: Embedded Systems offers optional quarterly and monthly payment plans however <br /> the cost per site increases. <br /> <br />Time and Materials Costs: <br /> <br />Embedded Systems Inc. <br />Doradus <br /> <br />$75/hr., including travel time <br />90/hr " " " <br /> <br />Both contraC!s offer parts and repairs at Cost + 20% <br /> <br />By-In Inspection Charges: <br /> <br />Embedded Systems <br /> <br />Depends on status of function at time of agreement. If <br />not functioning properly then the site would be brought <br />up to working order on Time and Materials rate. <br /> <br />Doradus <br /> <br />N/A since we are under contract currently. <br /> <br />While I have not done any study as to the number of hours that Doradus has billed us for <br />repairs not covered under the Maintenance Agreement portion of the contract (actually I <br />mn not sure there have been any) there is a saving of $1,53 O/year just in the Maintenance <br />Agreement portion with Embedded Systems and this is using Doradus' 1996 contract <br />figures. If they follow their past practice the per site cost will likely increase for 1997 <br />while the Embedded Systems price is for 1997. <br /> <br /> <br />
