March 20^th, we will be going-LIVE with the New and Improved SpearMart, FSU’s electronic procurement system. All procurement requisition and purchase order related activities (excluding receiving, invoicing/payments, and internal purchase orders) will be moving out of OMNI and into SpearMart. The focus of the SpearMart Enhancement Project is to create a “One Stop Shopping” experience which includes shopping, requisition creation, workflow approvals, purchase order creation/distribution, as well as all procurement related paper forms. 

VWR Lab Supply & Service Center Grand Opening is this Friday, December 2^nd from 11am – 2pm. King Life Science Building Rm 1013.

We are pleased to announce that Procurement Services and Enterprise Resource Planning are currently engaged in a project to significantly expand the capabilities of SpearMart, FSU’s online electronic procurement system, hosted by Jaggaer.

REMINDER - Friday, June 24th is the last day for FY16 SpearMart orders. All SpearMart requisitions must be submitted and approved by 12-noon (ET). Requisition pre-entry will be available Monday, June 27, 2016 through Tuesday, June 28, 2016. For additional year-end closeout details, visit http://calendar.fsu.edu/Lists/Finance%20and%20Reporting%20Services/calendar.aspx

We've created an electronic marketing initiative to help promote the utilization of SpearMart participating suppliers. You will find the latest products and promotions offered from each of these suppliers by visiting their webpages on our Supplier Showcase web portal. We encourage you to support these strategic business partners.

Procurement Specialist, Joyce Cordell, will retire this month after 41 years of FSU service. We are proud of her service and her contributions to campus and will miss her.

Departments have not had the ability to search open PO items (waiting to be received) by Department ID since the OMNI Financials Upgrade to 9.2. We created a query as an alternate solution to better assist departments. The name of this query is FSU_DPT_PENDING_RECEIPTS. Please click here for directions on how to use this query.

To add a new supplier for processing a PO, please use our new supplier setup process (Click here for the New FSU Substitute IRS Form W9). The new process is paperless and leverages electronic signature technology and automatically routes the completed form to our office. We appreciate your support as we continue to enhance our service to you and our supplier community.

As part of our new E&I contract with Lowe’s, we have brand new key fobs to replace your existing fobs for P-Card holders wishing to purchase items from the local Lowe’s locations. These can be scanned in the store at check out so that you may receive a 5% discount that is not currently provided outside SpearMart.

If you would like to have a key fob (or fobs!), please send Geneva Miller your university mail code and she will send them to you via campus mail or you may pick them up in the Procurement Services Department.
