Sedia Systems has earned a coveted contract as a preferred fixed seating solution for the 5,500 educational institutions who are members of E&I Cooperative Services, a sourcing cooperative for higher education and K-12 schools in the U.S.
“It’s a big deal for Sedia Systems to gain this distinction as a contracted supplier with E&I Cooperative Services,” said Roy Koch, Managing Partner who oversees sales for Sedia Systems. “It’s a great opportunity to partner with the premier sourcing cooperative for educational institutions, and it’s valuable recognition for Sedia Systems as we continue to grow into the leading fixed seating provider in the marketplace.”

Their portfolio of 130+ contracts with industry-leading suppliers and innovative sourcing solutions help their members in the higher education, community college and K-12 space save time and money.

It gives us a greater awareness in the education marketplace, and it benefits the Cooperative’s members with access to our complete line of high-quality fixed seating products at a competitive, publicly solicited price.”
