University-Wide Agreements are special pricing agreements made with suppliers for goods and services. These agreements are managed by Purchasing Services, part of the Controller's Office.
- University departments may order against these agreements for up to $249,999.
- All purchases must be completed using either a requisition transaction in the Enterprise Financial System (EFS), a Purchase Order/Standard Contract in TRIRIGA, via a U Market order (if the supplier is in U Market), or with a PCard or Travel Card (when appropriate).
These agreements are set up in a variety of ways. Some agreements list discounts from an entire product line and others list discounts or net prices on specific product or model number. A copy of the complete contract and terms and conditions for each agreement are available on request to those who are allowed to make purchases using the contract. To request a copy of the full contract and terms and conditions, contact [email protected], include the supplier name and UWide# with the request.
Full List of Suppliers is available in Google Sheets.
