We’ve partnered with senior campus leaders to streamline the ordering process. We are pleased to announce some exciting changes we’re making to simplify and speed up the purchasing process.
All of these changes will be implemented on July 1, 2025.
- The e-SHOP transaction limit will increase to $5,000 (from $2,500). Orders $5,000 and over will route for approval. Payment requests will still require a fiscal officer’s approval. If you assign shopping carts to others to complete, your ordering process remains the same.
- The university bid limit will increase to $50,000 (from $25,000). This change will significantly reduce the number of purchase orders required. It will also cut the number of required single/sole-source justification forms and price certifications by half.
- A new $4,999 transaction limit will be added to the procurement card program. This new limit will be rolled out strategically across campus by administrative managers.
We are always interested in hearing from you. If you have any questions or comments, please contact Procurement Services.
