How To Use An Existing Purchasing Contract
UW Madison contracts are not mandatory and are established
for commodities that are frequently purchased. The term of a contract
is usually 3 years, but can be for longer. Purchasing has already gone
through the competitive process and has received the best price structure
or discount percentages.
- The first thing for you to do is check our contract page to see
if an item is under contract. http://www.bussvc.wisc.edu/purch/contract/conindx.html
- Make sure you read the contract. Some contracts
are restricted and/or have special requirements or instructions. If
you have any questions, contact the agent listed.
- Reference the contract number on your requisition.
- If you have any questions as to whether what you need is on contract
or not, contact Purchasing Services at (608) 262-1526.
