I need supplies for my laboratory. How do I order my supplies?

To order supplies, fill out a Materials & Service Request (MSR) to be signed (authorized) by your Division Chair. Your Division Chair will forward your MSR to the Purchasing department. The Purchasing Dept. will place the order using a signed purchase order to the vendor. Generally, local vendors deliver within approximately seven business days after receipt of an order. Vendors located out of state generally deliver within about 14 business days after receipt of an order.

The purchasing process may take some time; it is important to plan ahead.

If you need supplies urgently and the cost is under $100.00, you may make a purchase and receive reimbursement. For this you will need prior authorization from your Division Chair. Fill out a Request for Payment Form (RFP) and attach the original receipt. Submit both to your Division Chair for approval. Your Division Chair will forward the approved RFP to the Purchasing Dept.

To purchase equipment, fill out an MSR and follow the procedures above. Additionally, you must receive authorization from the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

General office supplies may be ordered through your Faculty Secretary.

If you have any purchasing questions or would like to receive purchasing training, please contact Dianna Thiele at extension 3210.

The MSR and RFP are located at http://tbird.highline.edu/hq/forms.html
