THE SHORT VERSION $5,558 a year is what quote RQ-5531 charges above what Order Form LW-2025-118 supports at the quoted 48 seats. Quoted - $21,888.00 - Signed terms support - $16,329.60 at 48 seats, or $13,608.00 at the 40-seat floor Verdicts - 1 MATCHES, 1 OVER CAP, 1 NOT SIGNED, 1 DISCOUNT DROPPED - 1 open question, worth $0 LINE BY LINE L1 - "Term 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2027, billed annually." - quantity 12 months, no unit price Signed - 9.2 "this Order Form renews for successive 12-month terms." - 2.1 "billed annually in advance." Working - quoted term 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2027 = 12 months; clause 9.2 renews for 12 months; billing annual on both sides; the quote does not say "in advance" (Q1) Verdict - MATCHES - the length and billing frequency are the ones clauses 9.2 and 2.1 set. Gap - 0 L2 - "1. Business plan - 48 seats x $34.00 per seat per month x 12 = $19,584.00" - 48 seats at $34.00 Signed - 9.2 "Fees for a renewal term may increase by no more than 5% over the per-seat fees paid in the prior term." - 2.2 "Customer commits to no fewer than 40 seats for the initial term and each renewal term." Working - both price and quantity moved. Price: prior fee $30.00 per seat per month, $27.00 after the 10% discount ($30.00 x 0.90 = $27.00). Cap measured from the $30.00 fee before discount: $30.00 x 1.05 = $31.50, less 10% = $28.35. Cap measured from the $27.00 paid after discount: $27.00 x 1.05 = $28.35, discount already inside. Both bases give $28.35 net, so no range; this line carries the $31.50 before discount and the discount is applied once, at L4. Quoted $34.00 is $4.00 above $30.00, a 13.3% rise. Allowed 48 x $31.50 x 12 = $18,144.00; quoted 48 x $34.00 x 12 = $19,584.00. Quantity: 48 seats against the 40-seat floor in 2.2 and 31 people in use; at the floor 40 x $31.50 x 12 = $15,120.00. Verdict - OVER CAP - the unit price rose 13.3% against a 5% cap, and the quoted 48 seats sit 8 above the 40-seat floor, which is the fewest the buyer can renew at even though 31 are in use. Gap - 1,440 ($19,584.00 - $18,144.00) L3 - "2. Security add-on (SSO, audit log) - 48 seats x $4.00 per seat per month x 12 = $2,304.00" - 48 seats at $4.00 Signed - 2.4 "SSO and audit log are included in the Business plan at no additional charge." Working - allowed unit price $0.00; 48 x $0.00 x 12 = $0.00; quoted 48 x $4.00 x 12 = $2,304.00 Verdict - NOT SIGNED - it prices SSO and audit log, which replace nothing and were included in the Business plan under 2.4. Gap - 2,304 L4 - "3. Loyalty discount - not applicable" - no quantity, $0.00 Signed - 2.3 "a 10% loyalty discount applies to Subscription fees in the initial term and in each renewal term." Working - allowed Subscription fees at 48 seats $18,144.00 (L2); discount $18,144.00 x 0.10 = $1,814.40; quoted $0.00; at the 40-seat floor $15,120.00 x 0.10 = $1,512.00 Verdict - DISCOUNT DROPPED - clause 2.3 carries the discount into each renewal term, and the quote removes it. Gap - 1,814 ($1,814.40) QUESTIONS FOR THE VENDOR Q1 - L1 - Is the renewal term under RQ-5531 billed annually in advance, as clause 2.1 states - yes or no? - worth $0 to $0 THE EMAIL Hello, Thank you for renewal quote RQ-5531. Checked against Order Form LW-2025-118, we would like a corrected quote on these points: Quote line 1, Business plan: clause 9.2 limits the renewal increase to 5% over the prior per-seat fee, so $30.00 becomes at most $31.50 before discount. The quote shows $34.00, which is $1,440.00 a year more at 48 seats. Quote line 2, Security add-on: clause 2.4 includes SSO and audit log in the Business plan at no additional charge. This line adds $2,304.00. Quote line 3, Loyalty discount: clause 2.3 applies the 10% discount in each renewal term. At 48 seats it is worth $1,814.40. We would also like to renew at 40 seats, the minimum commitment in clause 2.2, rather than 48. At $31.50 less 10%, that comes to 40 x $28.35 x 12 = $13,608.00 for the year. Could you confirm the renewal is billed annually in advance, as clause 2.1 states? Please send the revised quote when you can. Thanks, Your name WHAT THIS CHECK DID NOT SEE The rest of Order Form LW-2025-118 beyond clauses 2.1 to 2.4 and 9.2, including any notice period or deadline for reducing seats before renewal - L2, L4. Nothing in the quote appears cut off mid-line. Taxes, which this check does not judge.
