Herman Miller's Relationship With PC Training Source

Herman Miller recently renegotiated its contract for its IT Professional and Desktop online courses. Because its three-year contract with the encumbent vendor was about to expire, the company had the opportunity to seek bids from all of the leading online content vendors. During the bidding process, Herman Miller carefully compared each vendor's offering (it's not all about price) and reconsidered its long-standing relationship with PC Training Source.

For over six years, Herman Miller has sourced the bulk of its online learning content through PC Training Source, rather than directly from the various content vendors. Why? Having one-stop-shopping for various types of content, an expert that can locate those difficult to find courses, and an advocate when renegotiating contracts with the big vendors is a real value-add. During the recent bidding process, the competition between vendors was fierce, but PC Training Source was able to negotiate better pricing, more libraries, and more features with ElementK (the winning vendor). Once again, PC Training Source proved there is real value in our relationship. We look forward to another three years with PC Training Source and Element K.
