BuyºÚÁÏÍø transforms the way goods and services are purchased at The ºÚÁÏÍø (ºÚÁÏÍø) by providing campus employees with an electronic procurement system that is easy to navigate and intuitive to use, resulting in an easier and faster procurement process. It is the single-entry point where faculty and staff at ºÚÁÏÍø can shop for most of their campus-related purchases. BuyºÚÁÏÍø saves money by using negotiated discounted prices from ºÚÁÏÍø. It can track what you purchase and how much you spend on these purchases, improving our ability to negotiate volume discounts.

Use BuyºÚÁÏÍø when ANY of the following apply to a purchase:

  1. The payment is $5,000 or more
  2. The item is from a Catalog Vendor (e.g., Amazon)
  3. It is for Chartered Buses, Construction, Contracts/Agreements, Food Catering via Sodexo, Furniture Items, IT Equipment/Supplies/Software, Medical Equipment/Supplies, Office Supplies, Printing Supplies, or Scientific Equipment/Supplies

Note: If the vendor will not take a Purchase Order (PO), then contact Procurement.
