System Contracts are subcontracts, setup by Berkeley Lab Procurement, that open a supplier's entire catalog or standard LBNL items for purchase by Berkeley Lab personnel.
Delivery is normally within a day or two for high-volume items.
Before proceeding further, please familiarize yourself with LBNL's Restricted Items List . The Laboratory is prohibited by its Prime Contract with DOE from purchasing certain items with Government funds. Other items require special internal approvals before purchasing them. These items appear on the Restricted Items List and only LBNL Procurement personnel are authorized to purchase them, with adequate justification from the requester. The following general categories of items are currently available for ordering using system contracts.
