Furniture contracts for the University are based on the manufacturer line. Local contract dealers service the University's needs and are listed below. All furniture contracts include discounts from list pricing (most are 30% to 70% off list) and pricing usually includes delivery and installation. Although each website reflects available items, pricing specific to the University is available via a local dealer. Each dealer also provides additional services including design, on-site consultation as needed, and installation. Contract furniture items automatically meet flammability ratings as required by the University Fire Marshal.
