- How we determine if a package meets the needs of our members.
- The different ways content is offered to members to ensure it meets all of our member’s needs.
- What data points and information we make sure to know before engaging in a negotiation and how it may differ from individual institution negotiation efforts.
- How we work with vendors when determining price and what we do internally to ensure accuracy.
- The pressure points which consortia contend with that make or break a deal.
