Express PO

Get in the Express Lane!

Effective April 9, 2007, the dollar limit on Express Purchase Orders will be changed to $2,500 to remain consistent with University competitive requirements.

Access to the Banner system is a prerequisite for participation in the initiative. To participate, please send e-mail to Daniel Young. A guide containing step-by-step instructions for completion of Banner form FWAPURR is available here. Purchasing Services has established a large number of contracts covering items commonly purchased by the University community. Customers are encouraged to access these contracts first whenever using an Express PO. For quick reference, a list of contract vendors to be used in conjunction with this initiative is available.

Approval of certain purchases, such as radioactive isotopes, computer hardware, drugs and controlled substances, professional services and maintenance agreements, must still be obtained for purchases under the Express PO program. Express PO transactions will not be increased or decreased via Change Order. For additional information, please call the Purchasing Services Customer Care Line at 5-9521, or send e-mail to expresspo@umdnj.edu.
