Hey Chris,
Perhaps these are outside your intended scope, I am more of a process guy, but these things come to mind:
- Moldflow included?
- Warranty on # of shots
- Parts fall freely or must be pulled manually
- 25% Spare parts on critical components and/or wearables
- 70% reduction in price for 3 plate mold designs

Hi!
I think shelf time, lead time needs to be considered also.
