[YES|NO] o Please provide one single quotation covering all four agreements. o Each quotation needs to be linked to the correct HPE agreement number and sub-total for that quotation with a final total covering all four agreements. o We do not want to consolidate all four agreements into a new single agreement ID for logistical reasons.
