Hello,
Thank you for your response. It appears that this data is for the 1033 Program, which a free of cost (except for shipping costs) transfer program. As mentioned in my request, I am seeking data on purchases made through the 1122 Program, which requires agencies to pay for equipment using a federal discount. There is no public reporting requirement for the 1122 Program, which is why I am requesting data. Please let me know if Delaware participates in the 1122 Program and where I can obtain data on these purchases.
