This document is a Master Agreement for cloud services between the State of New Hampshire, Department of Administrative Services, and Microsoft Corporation. The agreement establishes Microsoft as an authorized vendor under New Hampshire's statewide contract vehicle, allowing state agencies, political subdivisions, and other eligible entities within New Hampshire to procure Microsoft cloud services through this streamlined procurement mechanism.

The contract covers Microsoft's comprehensive suite of cloud services including Azure cloud computing platform, Office 365 productivity suite, Enterprise Mobility + Security solutions, Windows operating systems, and various other Microsoft cloud-based products and services. Pricing is based on Microsoft's standard commercial rates with potential volume discounts available depending on usage levels and commitment terms. The agreement includes provisions for automatic renewals and allows for the addition of new Microsoft services as they become available. Participating entities can access these services through direct ordering from Microsoft using the established contract terms, eliminating the need for individual procurement processes while ensuring compliance with state procurement regulations and leveraging collective purchasing power for potentially favorable pricing arrangements.
