ISU - Volume Purchase Agreements Purchasing Department Volume Purchase Agreements ISU has established the following volume purchase agreements for computer peripherals, supplies, and related products. Agreements are negotiated with vendors that have a large volume of purchases, allowing ISU to receive discounts off retail prices. These agreements were not competitively bid.
Some vendors require an actual copy of the purchase order before the order can be shipped.
A copy of the purchase requisition is not to be used, as it is not an actual order, but an internal ISU request to create an order. Generating a purchase order may be accomplished by direct order entry or by sending a requisition to Purchasing. Where a purchase order is required, pricing may be obtained by contacting the appropriate purchasing agent or the listed Vendor Contact. If you choose to obtain pricing, request a written or faxed price quote be sent to you and forward it with your requisition to your main department office. The departmental office will direct enter your order or will generate a purchase requisition and send it to the Purchasing Department.
