6. Terms Savings: Any type of savings made, whether it translates directly into cash or not. Cashable Savings: Real Money - Sub-group of savings where the value of the savings resulted in a hard cash returned to the organization. There is no universally accepted definition of what precisely constitutes a cash, cash releasing or cashable saving. NIGP is currently researching best practice in this area.

8. Base Efficiency In January of 2010, the agency acquires a new building to use as a staff training and meeting facility. The fit out of the new facility requires 300 conference room style chairs. The price for a conference room chair is $100 per chair were they to buy from their existing supplier on the existing contract.
