    Compro presently offers a selection of maintenance plans designed to meet the growing demands of today's customers. Compro understands each customer has specific needs which is why these support programs can be tailored to fit the unique requirements of the customer.

    The monthly rate is determined by the equipment configuration and proximity to an Compro Service Office location. Rates apply to coverage during the Principal Period of Maintenance (PPM), which is 8:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

    The services provided are based upon the selected service plan. These plans are available at fixed monthly rates for ease of budgeting. The minimum term is one year.

    All TDM's must be returned to Compro upon cancellation of the hardware support contract.

    MODEL NUMBERS/ORDERING INFORMATION

    All Compro products are identified by unique model numbers. Customer Services model numbers are the same as the product model numbers with the addition of a two-digit prefix. The first digit of this prefix denotes it is a Customer Service product (F) and the second digit denotes the type of service (i.e., Premier, Standard, SUS, etc.). The breakdown of these prefixes are as follows:

    FL = Premier Hardware Support
    FD = Standard Hardware Support
    FU = Software Update Service
    FP = Premier Software Support
    FS = Standard Software Support
    FR = Remote Hardware Support
    FM = Mature Software Support

    Note: All 91 Series computer systems bundle the operating system and other software products with the system price. As a result, there is a separate price for hardware and software maintenance. The software maintenance price will appear in the software section and the hardware maintenance price will appear in the hardware section of the Customer Services Price List. The base part number will remain the same but the service two-digit prefix will change.

    All contract maintenance service pricing listed in this price list is represented in Monthly Maintenance Rate (MMR) dollars, with the exception of Software Update Service (SUS) and Mature Software Support (MSS) which are represented in Annual Support Rate (ASR) dollars.

    MMR = Monthly Maintenance Rate

    ASR = Annual Support Rate
