Common use of Maine Alternative Deployments Clause in Contracts

Maine Alternative Deployments. Maine middle schools may also elect to participate in an alternative one-to-one deployment, using different devices or configurations than that provided by the State-funded solution from the Provider. This alternative deployment could utilize an optional cost schedule for upgrades or enhancement offered by the Provider, or the school unit at its discretion could utilize equipment or services from some other vendor. If a school’s alternative deployment satisfies criteria to be established by the Department, the State would provide to that school – for those service components that are susceptible to disaggregation -- funds equal to the component(s) of the State-funded solution. The local school unit would have sole responsibility for any additional costs, beyond the State-funded solution, associated with the alternative deployment.
