In order to facilitate approvals required in the COVID-19 Campus Procurement Guidelines released March 19, 2020, effective immediately, units must complete an approval form for all purchases greater than $50,000 and general procurement items which meet the criteria below.

We have been in touch with many of our ePro suppliers and, as of today, they are continuing to deliver their merchandise to the campus. Some building doors are locked to those without key card access, so we are asking building managers to post signs outside the building to tell the delivery person who to call for deliveries/where to leave deliveries.
