Procurement's new website goes live February 25!


Procurement and Supplier Diversity Services will roll out their new website on Tuesday, February 25.  The new site is the result of collaboration with CACS and our stakeholders, and we think you'll like what you see!  Thank you to our website preview team (Whitney Richardson, Maureen Pipkin, Sherry Fitzgerald, Ruth Lawrence, Rosemary Shaw, Matthew Bradley, Judy Grigg, Leslie Yowell, Susan Hughes, Jacquelynn Hardin, Danielle Hancock, and Jack Jensen) and the Fiscal Administrators group for your help and feedback.

Some new features we're proud of: 

New Goods and Services Procurement Guide

  • Streamlined look
  • New recommendations from Procurement on which procurement method is the best for each category
  • Suggested expenditure types if possible
  • Links to commodity guides that include wide-ranging information about an entire commodity from purchasing to payment (example, furniture)

Organized resources by function

  • A basic overview guide for purchasing, payables, and vendor processes
  • Succinct resources listing the tools, training, and other related resources for each area
  • Contact information by contact type for each function (example: for payables we list all of the different reasons you may need to contact, and which email address to use which surprisingly wasn’t there before).

We know everything won't be perfect immediately, so if you have thoughts or feedback, please let us know!  You can submit your thoughts using the "Get Help" button on the navigation bar.  The site will undergo continuous improvement, and we already have some enhancements planned for the near future.  

Travel & Expense and Supplier Diversity are already live -- check them out!
