The Daily Bulletin

We encourage all areas across campus to exercise financial restraint when purchasing any other than personal service (OTPS) items. Please do not feel obligated to spend down any of your budget allocations. The savings we incur from not doing so during the last quarter of the fiscal year, now through the end of June, has a significant impact on our financial sustainability plan.

In order to support this request the following is in place, effective 3/31/2025 for 2024/2025 funding:

· No new furniture, capital equipment, or motorized equipment will be approved unless funded by the construction fund.

· The Bengal Supply Exchange should be used for any supply needs, unless the products are not available.  Bengal Supply Exchange, located in Cleveland Hall, Room 112, is now open every day of the week. 

· All requests for purchases that require a purchase order should be provided to procurement by Wednesday, April 16, 2025.

· Travel should be limited to mission critical only. Travel and NET cards have undergone review for deactivation, with account holders being contacted directly.
