Steelcase Discounts and Pricing Structure

Summary: On Sept. 1, 2001, the University of California finalized a new contract with Steelcase, Inc. The information below provides details on discounts and pricing structure.

To view and order furniture products online, please visit these Web sites: Steelcase@Marketplace Preview and BKM@UCSD.

Background: Steelcase pricing is based on the product price in effect at the time of order, with a few exceptions that are covered by the Steelcase-UC contract. List price increases occur once a year at the most and usually don't exceed 3.5% for the entire product line. All price quotes are firm for at least 90 days.

The two tables below show how to compute discount pricing using Steelcase's discounts on various types of furniture. The first table shows the discounts when additional charges apply. The second table shows discounts when there are no additional charges.

On this first table, additional charges include:

Design services: 2% of list price
Design fees apply when a designer helps plan workspace design, provides budget guidance, advises in product selection, or offers other essential services.
Installation services for projects of $50,000 or less: 6.25% of list price.
Installation services for projects of more than $50,000: 4.5% of list price.
