Guilford Technical Community College (GTCC) recently awarded SKA three Open-end Service Agreements for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering. Each Open-end Agreement is for one year, renewable for one additional year, and accounts for annual fees not-to-exceed (NTE) $150,000 in total value for a maximum of $300,000 total for each Open-end Service Agreement.
