Furniture PolicyFURNITURE PURCHASING POLICY - The purpose of this policy is to
simplify and improve the process for purchasing furniture at all
University campuses and locations. University departments shall use the contract for furniture purchases that are at or below the University's dollar limit for formal competition (please refer to the Board of Regents Policies and Procedures manual). University departments should submit a requisition to Purchasing for any furniture purchase exceeding the dollar limit requiring formal competition. University departments should provide for a lead time of about six to eight weeks for furniture orders to be placed, which exceed the dollar amount requiring Board of Regents approval (please refer to the Board of Regents Policies and Procedures manual). Customer departments should feel free to contact one or more of the contracted vendors in developing specifications and requirements. This can serve as an effective method for customers to compare offerings of several manufacturers. When a required brand is not represented on the furniture contract, it shall be acquired utilizing the most efficient process allowed by policy. If the brand is used repeatedly it may be considered for addition to the contract at the next renewal. Questions regarding administration of the University's furniture contract program should be referred to the Furniture Buyer in the Purchasing Department.
