Educational OEM Policy (Internal Use Only)
Educational OEM’s working with Schools and Customer Training Departments • There are a select number of OEM’s that target the educational industry focusing on educational institutions and customer training departments. • Training work stations that include Rockwell Automation Hardware and Software • Custom Course and Lab Curriculum • Value Add Services • End user customers can only purchase the HW/SW via the OEM on a pre-packaged workstation. The OEM is extended a fixed resale price for HW and SW. (see next slide) • Educational institution customers will typically purchase the workstations from the OEM but will have a choice to purchase SW bundled with the workstation or lease the software via the Rockwell Automation Educational Support Program. • Lease via Education Support Program requires a separate enrollment via local distributor or Rockwell Automation sales office. • SW purchases are usually done when the school has been issued a financial grant.
