Hey, at least we don't have to worry about the 'Year 3 Licensing Costs' for Company A. That's one way to stay under budget!

True, that's a relief. But we still need to consider the full implementation costs for Company A.

I agree, the numbers for B and C seem to fit the budget. A would be too expensive, and I'm not sure why D is an option since the costs for A and C don't add up to the max budget.

Based on the budget of $310,000, it looks like both Company B and Company C meet the criteria. The total costs for those two vendors are within the budget limit.
