In order to ensure the timely completion of your request, please provide as much detail as possible.

    A few things to consider when co-hosting Virtual Meetings

    • Communications can also provides technical assistance before and during the meeting, including preliminary planning with logistics and save the dates (e.g preregistration and links).
    • Please use your CREC approved headshot photo as your profile picture.
    • When going live on any of our CREC Social Media Platforms, please wear approved CREC attire or CREC apparel. The CREC Company Store has branded attire.
    • Any presentations (like PowerPoints) are the responsibility of the event organizer. CREC Communications would be willing to assist with design per request.
    • To avoid major technical difficulties, we highly recommend you arrive at least 45-minutes early to any virtua event.

    Purchasing Process: Please follow all steps!

    After you submit your request...

    1. Communications will send out a Request For Quote to our vendors once all pertinent information for the order is received. The vendors will contact YOU, the requester, directly with any questions regarding your item(s) like color, material, stitching, etc.
    2. You will receive various quotes for review.
    3. Once a quote gets approved, you MUST submit a requisition in MUNIS for a Purchase Order. The order will proceed once you provide the PO#.
    4. Proofs, if any, will be sent to you for review/approval before the order moves into production.
    5. You will get the invoice from the vendor or the CREC Purchasing Department. Please review the invoice to ensure it belongs to your school/program and the pricing is correct before processing.
    6. Please stamp/send the invoice for payment to your Accounts Payable designee once your deliverables are in-hand, never before.
