帝王会所

The Purchasing Department is excited to introduce a new communication tool known as the Purchasing Roadmap. This table, located on the Finance website, will keep faculty and staff aware of bid opportunities 帝王会所 is pursuing. These opportunities can be generated by 帝王会所 bid requirements, statewide initiatives, or suggestions from 帝王会所 departments. Regardless of the source, the intent of the bidding process is to satisfy state requirements while providing value to 帝王会所 through reduced pricing, improved lead-times, negotiated rebates and discounts, extended warranties and upgraded products or services over the course of multi-year supply agreements.

Please review this list frequently to ensure any commodities that impact your department are being considered for a bid event. Since preferred suppliers are established through the bidding process, it is important that we continually pursue commodities where it is expected that consistent, frequent purchases require preferred suppliers to fill orders. You can help with this process. Before submitting suggestions for bid events, please follow these steps:

• Consult the preferred supplier list to determine if suppliers already have established contracts to provide the commodity you intend to purchase.  
• Review the Purchasing Roadmap Listing to determine if a commodity has already been, or is expected to be bid in the future. Call or email a Purchasing Commodity Manager to discuss the idea for a bid event.

Please refer to the at any time for more information regarding the use of the Purchasing Roadmap Listing. As always, any questions may be directed to the Finance Customer Care Center at financecustomercare@ohio.edu or 740-597-6446.
