Tips for Purchasing and Reimbursement
- Plan Ahead
- Provide yourself at least 1-2 weeks lead time on purchasing items
- Certain goods or services may require prior approval from offices outside the ME Department. Time to acquire those approvals will need to be considered.
- Internal Order Forms (IOFs) and reimbursement forms must be completed for all purchases for goods, services, and reimbursements.
- Completely fill in the form & obtain approval by PI/ Faculty Sponsor before submitting.
- Be sure to include a business purpose, i.e., how this purchase will benefit the project and UNM.
- Please provide direct links for items you wish to order
