Benefits of our Procurement Site for Corporate Buyers
1.  How do I log in?
To log into our procurement site, you must first be assigned a username and password.  If your company has already joined this site, and you were not given login information, please ask your department manager or purchasing administrator for the username and password you should use for our site.  They can create a login for you themself, or they may call us for assistance if they prefer.

If your company has not yet joined our procurement program, Click here to fill out the information request form.  After that is complete, we will contact you shortly.

2.  How will my company benefit from purchasing via your Corporate Procurement site?
Much paperwork and time can be saved by utilizing our service.  Your managers can review purchases their buyers have made, and approve orders individually.  No orders are actually shipped without online managerial review.  If you regularly purchase certain items in quantity, you may also qualify for our site's custom contract pricing on those items.  We ship orders the same day they are approved in most cases.

3.  What are the requirements to join this site?
We position this site towards larger businesses of 100 or more employees.  Smaller businesses that do not require managerial review of orders and detailed reporting may make use of our companion commercial site, which provides the same products and prices with streamlined ordering and without the managerial section.

4.  What products are sold on this site?
Over 28,000 of our most popular items are available on this site, including office and computer supplies.
Please call us if you don't see what you are looking for.

5.  How can our company take advantage of this corporate procurement site?

General Site FAQ for End Users


A.  How do I find the product I am looking for?
A:  There are two main ways to locate a group of similar items, and a way to lookup exact stock numbers.  If you are searching for fax machines for example, you may type fax machine in the Search box and the site will provide a list of all of the items matching that word or phrase.  You could also go into the Browse Departments section, and select department, category, and subcategory to find similar items.  If you already know our stock number, you may enter it into our quick order form to instantly add it to your cart.

B.  Can I use AND, OR or quotes (to search for phrases) in my searches?
A:  This site is designed for accurate, yet very easy to use searching on over 28,000 items.  All of our searches are phrase searches by default, so there is no need for quotation marks.  We also do not look for the keywords AND or OR.  For more broad searches, try browsing the departments.  The search page searches item descriptions, manufacturer names, catalog page numbers, UPC codes, and stock numbers for a phrase match.

C.  I left your site, and came back a few days later.  The site then said my shopping cart contained items,
      before I put anything in the cart!  Is anything wrong?
A:  Nothing is wrong.  If you place items into your shopping cart, and do not complete the purchase or clear your shopping cart, the system conveniently saves your shopping cart for up to one month from the last time you logged in.  You may clear the cart at any time by viewing it and clicking on the Clear Cart button, or by placing the order.

D.  I want to reorder items that were on a previous order, to save time.  But when I go into Previous Orders, it only allows me to
    place the entire order(s) of my choice into my shopping cart.  How do I remove some of those items, or change the quantities?
A:  After you place the desired orders into your cart that contain the items you desire, simply view your cart to remove items or adjust quantities.  You may then checkout, or add more previous orders to your cart.

E.  I would like to purchase items from my contract.  How do I go about this?
A:  Our site automatically selects your discounted contract pricing for any items that are on your contract.  Simply place the item in your cart as normal.  Contact us if you are interested in contract pricing on items that you purchase on a regular basis or in large quantities.

F.  How fast will I receive my order?
A:  If you are configured as a buyer, your department manager will need to approve your order before we will process it.  We may configure your account to notify your manager immediately via E-mail when you place orders.  Please contact us to ensure we have the necessary E-mail address(es), if you wish this notification.  Once the order is approved by your manager, or if it was placed by a manager, our staff will receive notification of the order and we will ship it to you promptly.  Call us before or immediately after the order for more specific delivery information or if the order is of a particularly urgent nature, to ensure it receives priority handling.
