Master Contracts

Master Contracts are competitively bid through one of the following methods:

  • LSU Procurement awards through an RFP Process
  • State Contracts awarded by State Procurement
  • State Contracts adopted through a buying group or consortia (NASPO)
  • Consortia contracts competitively bid and vetted through LSU Procurement (Educational & Institutional Cooperative Services; OMNIA Partners; Sourcewell; etc.)

These awarded contracts are a function of our consolidated procurement process to realize volume discounts for the University and the campuses that we serve.  Master Contracts are negotiated in an effort to create efficiencies in the procurement process, to protect LSU with negotiated terms and conditions, to obtain favorable pricing and comply with applicable state and federal regulations. 

Shipping Orders 

  • Only locations configured in Workday can be used on punch-out supplier orders. Use the Shipping and Mailing Locations report in Workday to locate LSU approved shipping addresses. 
  • If someone is ordering supplies it is their responsibility to confirm the anticipated delivery date, to track orders and be available on campus and to accept those deliveries. Keep in mind many suppliers use subcontracted delivery services through FedEx and UPS so additional follow-up may be needed.
