COVID-19 Supplies

In the wake of the novel coronavirus pandemic, many items related to personal care have been in high demand across the entire university. In an effort to assist our staff in planning for upcoming supply needs, the Sourcing Department has established multiple supply chains for these items for everyone’s health and safety upon return to campus operations.

To engage one of the selected suppliers to provide services under the master service agreement, you can reach out to the supplier directly to solicit a statement of work, proposal and/or quote for your service. Once this is received:

  1. Create a GMS Requisition to request funding approval
  2. Attach as supporting documentation the statement of work, proposal, and/or quote from the supplier, including the dates of service
  3. Route Requisition for approval
  4. Once approved, source Requisition and create a Purchase Order
  5. When the department is ready to source the PO, the department may sign the statement of work, proposal, and/or quote. Master agreements include the same terms as a statement of work, proposal, and/or quote, so a departmental signature should not commit to any additional liability.
  6. Reference the GMS master contract number on the purchase order   
  7. Ensure the scope of work, proposal, and/or quote from the supplier is attached to the Purchase Order and send to the supplier.

Per the university’s Campus Face Covering Guidance, all students, employees, and visitors are to wear a face-covering at all times, except when alone in a private room with a closed door or in a private vehicle. This guidance must be followed on all campus spaces, including buildings/grounds, shared laboratory areas, shared residence hall spaces, conference rooms, GUTS busses, etc.

Here are CDC guidelines on how you can best protect yourself and others:

  • Wear face coverings that cover the mouth and nose where social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. OSHA designates N95 masks as respirators, and they are currently reserved for use by healthcare providers and first responders only. *use of N95 masks requires medical evaluation, training and fit testing*
  • Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.  When this is not available use hand sanitizer that contacts at least 60% alcohol.
  • Gloves are only worn for routine duties by staff in areas such as facility maintenance, food preparation, research/teaching laboratories, and should never be worn in common areas. Follow CDC hand washing guidelines. In instances where the performance of job duties requires direct human contact other staff  members may require disposable gloves based on increased general health/safety requirements.

While offices should remind them that they must follow the Campus Face Covering Guidance, the university is not responsible for providing face coverings to visitors, vendors, and contractors.

If you have lost deposits that are not refundable, there is a high likelihood that nothing that can be done.
