Texas law authorizes institutions of higher education (defined by §61.003, Education Code) to use the group purchasing procurement method (ref. §§51.9335, 73.115, and 74.008, Education Code). Additional Texas institutions of higher education may therefore elect to enter into a contract with the successful Contractor under this Agreement. In particular, Contractor should note that University is part of The University of Texas System (UT System), which is comprised of fourteen institutions described at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/institutions. UT System institutions routinely evaluate whether a contract resulting from a procurement conducted by one of the institutions might be suitable for use by another, and if so, this Agreement could give rise to additional purchase volumes. Any purchases made by other institutions based on this Agreement will be the sole responsibility of those institutions.
