We are pleased to announce the launch of IT VAR 2.0, effective October 1, 2026. The updated contract continues the University of Massachusetts system's partnership with three strategic technology suppliers: CDW-G, GovConnection, and WEI.
These contracts are designed to continue to streamline technology purchasing through competitively negotiated pricing, transparent markups, discounted professional services rates, and established service expectations. Pricing in the BuyWays catalogs has been updated to reflect the new agreements.
The IT VAR User Guide provides program details, purchasing guidance, and answers frequently asked questions.
