A new process is underway to streamline IT purchases for campus departments. A form to initiate technology purchases now resides on the purchasing website:  http://www.umw.edu/purchasing/it/default.php.

The form divides purchases into three classifications (Buy Your Own; Standard; Non-Standard) and allows departmental buyers to submit orders for standard items, which will be procured through eVA on behalf of the buyer. See details on the website for more information.

This new process has been previously communicated to all SPCC cardholders.  If you encounter any problems with the standard form, please email K. C. McCullough @ kmccullo@umw.edu. If you have problems or questions regarding the non-standard process, questions may be directed to the Help Desk at helpdesk@umw.edu.
