Contract value

$350,000

No contract value is disclosed. University‑wide student‑organization management platforms typically range from $200,000 to $600,000 depending on licensing, implementation, and support scope. Considering the size of Kent State (≈30,000 students) and a likely multi‑year license with training and support, a middle‑ground estimate of roughly $350,000 is reasonable. This accounts for software licensing, initial implementation services, training sessions, and one‑year of support.
