As stated above, one of the primary rules is that your rate is 10%
off the lowest single published rate. Consortia require rack and
corporate rates to be submitted for comparison purposes.
The corporate rate should always be below rack when doing
submissions and the Consortia rate should be 10% off of that.
To be safe and to ensure that you have no problems doing
submissions, your formula should be:
Rack Rate – Corporate (10%) – Consortia (10%) = Consortia Rate
Example-
• Rack$100.00
• Corporate$ 90.00
• Consortia$ 81.00
Sato is the exception to the rule. They do not follow the same rate
structure. Their rate is derived off of the government per-diem. They
require that you give them 5% off.
Government Rate – (5%) = SATO rate
Example-
• Government$ 100.00
• SATO$ 95.00
