Thanks to its sound partnering strategy, efficient
tender responses and long term relationship with the
universities, HP secured a $6.5 million (€4.5 million)
deal in the face of competition from Dell, Lenovo and
Acer. The deal provides the three universities with a
total of more than 6,000 HP EliteBook 8530w
mobile workstations. It also includes 500 HP
Compaq 6730b notebooks to Twente and Delft and
a further 300 HP 5101 Mini-Note PCs for Twente.
Accessories such as docking stations, batteries, bags
and displays are also on offer.

Brand confidence
“The 3TU Federation has a prominent position on the
university landscape. Graduates from these
universities are in great demand and a lot is
expected of them,” says Hans Bezemer, chief of the
Notebook Service Centre at University Twente. “We
have no PC rooms here so we put great reliance on
the notebooks that our students use because they are
the only computers they have. HP machines meet all
the demanding needs of the students in these
technical universities. We must have confidence in
the notebooks that we recommend and we have that
confidence in HP.”

An advantage for students taking part in this laptop
project is that the University of Twente has a
notebook service centre which guarantees that if
students have a problem with a notebook, they will
be provided with a new machine within an hour,
ready for their next lecture.

“We have recommended two HP machines to
students. A basic model for the non-graphics studies
and a more powerful model for students studying
architecture, civil engineering and industrial design
which need more computing power,” says Meta
Keijzer-de Ruijter, education advisor in the ICT
department at Delft. “We chose HP because we
need robust and reliable machines that are good
value for money and will last in the university
environment for three to four years.”
