My reply was a little hurried - thanks to Bruce for providing the additional information which I should have dug out myself.

For your institution, I suspect it would be a lot less - £250. Not only would it save you lots of time bin drawing up a spec - because the majority of LMS suppliers are familiar with its structure, you'd be more likely to get consistent and well-laid-out responses to any ITT you might derive from it.

Catch is that it costs about £500 - the benefit is that it does loads of work for you and could save you a lot of time - you'll have to weight it up...
