CHM Purchasing - Over $5000
All purchasing over $4,999 must be done through ShopUW+. You will work with CHM Purchasing to complete and submit all forms for the requisition (request for purchase). Each requisition is unique and will require different forms. Requisitions turn into Purchase Orders after they are approved.
Services can not start and/or goods can not be ordered until a Purchase Order has been approved by University Purchasing Services and there is an active Purchase Order number.
A purchase of goods/services $5k or over should not be promised to any vendor by anyone at CHM prior to receiving approval through University Purchasing Services!
If you wish to make a purchase that is over $5k, please submit a Purchase Request
Obtain a quote from the vendor you wish to use.
Attach the quote you received to your Purchase Request.
***Plan ahead. The entire process can take as long as 2-5 months! Sometimes longer than that!
