As always, if there is an emergency situation, we at Purchasing are here to help you out. Departments should purchase through contracted suppliers where contracts exist - like Boise for office products. This is to ensure we keep our end of the contract to provide an expected volume of purchases. It is that expected volume that determined the contractor's discount. If a particular contract is not working for you, please let us know and we will evaluate why and come to the best solution for all involved.
Student organizations follow more stringent guidelines at their own request.
Contact the Computer Services Department, ext. 2342 when planning any computer-related purchase whether hardware, software, or service so they may help evaluate your needs and find the most beneficial solution for you. This is to protect you for compatibility and operability purposes. They are most knowledgeable about building codes, fire codes, hooking into existing electrical systems, etc. Contact Purchasing if you want to move any items purchased by the College from your office.
