It is imperative to choose a company that can supply the volume of devices required for students year-after-year, and has a stature that makes it likely the company will exist for the foreseeable future. This latter aspect is critical to ensure adequate technical support is available and to ensure the selected mobile platform will be available for future students. 6. Measurement
