Acer Australia and New Zealand has secured a contract with the Department of Education Queensland that will see more than 12,000 Acer Travelmate Spin P4 notebooks issued to Queensland teachers throughout 2023 via the Computers for Teachers (CFT) program.
This is the second consecutive year that Acer ANZ has successfully tendered for and won the largest portion of the notebook requirements for the Queensland Department of Education state teachers. The contract is worth in excess of $15 million.
Acer ANZ managing director, Gaba Cheng said, “Acer is delighted with this contract win that sees us continuing to build on our existing relationship with the Department of Education Queensland. Acer has over 25 years of experience working with the Australian education sector, allowing us to provide our customers with dedicated education expertise and support, including a local service centre. It is a privilege to be able to deliver our market-leading products to many of the state’s educators, with reliable laptops being a fundamental tool for teachers.”
The New Acer TravelMate Spin P4 offers a two-in-one laptop with touchscreen display and Intel Core i5 processor, as well as a larger touchpad, stylus for note taking, keyboard with quieter key presses and military-grade Corning Gorilla Glass display.
The contract win is a testament to Acer’s local growth aspirations in 2023 and beyond, according to general manager of commercial business, Cameron Anderson.
“We anticipate that this renewed relationship with the Department of Education Queensland will open the door for further opportunities within both the education and wider commercial segments. We are thrilled to be able to cater to the evolving needs of the education sector within the Australasian region.”
