Blanket Orders For The New Year

Beginning July 1, 2009, blanket orders will not be issued.  In lieu of blanket purchase orders the methods to be used are P-Card, EMarket and Line Item Requisitions.  Using these methods the university will be able to track what is being purchased and at what cost to the university and with this information we can leverage our buying power with the vendors to receive even greater discounts, incentives and services.  For more information please see the memo from John Carnaghi.  Purchasing also has a Blanket Order Guidelines document to assist you.  Please contact purchasing with any questions or concerns you may have.
