Partner Requisitions (ECAT)

An MIT partnership agreement with major suppliers for purchasing goods and/or services. The Partner Vendors are Airgas, Apple Computer, Dell Computer, GovConnection, Minuteman Press, Grainger, Office Depot, and VWR International.

With Partner requisitions, using the electronic catalogs adds an additional initial layer of steps, but ultimately many timesaving advantages as well. The vendors will ask you to fill out shipping information before you order.

You will then select items directly out of the online catalog creating an electronic shopping basket full of your selected items.

• Access vendor's online catalog and fill out required information.
• Select items from catalog, or use existing lists to create new order.
• Submit order to SAP.
• Complete the SAPweb screen.
• Submit the SAPweb requisition.
• SAP requisition number is assigned.
• If required, requisition is routed to departmental approver for release.
• Requisition turned into PO electronically.
