Below, we have illustrated real-life case studies* of political subdivisions who kindly shared their contract specifics with us.
* We take the privacy of these political subdivisions seriously and therefore anonymized their identities.
The examples below show how complicated this process is, and how pricing isn’t always what it seems. (The rates in these case studies do not reflect the current market.)
