This page last updated September 22, 2000. Due to the high volume of computer purchases and the wishes of the departments to have them placed as quickly as possible, blanket agreements were set up with Apple, Dell and Gateway so that departments would have the option of placing their own orders. University purchases from these suppliers are governed by the prices, terms and conditions contained in UC Systemwide contracts. The vendor contacts are listed below and they are happy to provide you with quotes and assist you with the ordering process.
Some general guidelines follow as well. .
UCR is not yet set up to place orders on-line with Apple, Dell or Gateway. The system may act as though it is accepting your order but it will not be placed. Be sure to fax the vendor copy of the sub purchase order because the vendor needs to have the 'ship to' and 'bill to' information that is not on the department copy. . Be sure to put your name and telephone number on the sub purchase order so the vendor can contact you with any questions or concerns. It is a good idea to verify that vendors have received and entered your orders into their system.
