Depending of what is being purchased/ordered, there may be several different options to choose from. In some cases, there may be many places to purchase from, but there may be a preferred vendor to purchase from.
A quick overview is Request Quote>Send Quote to SDELC Staff for approval> Get Approval > Go to SDELC to "Check out" an SDELC credit card > Using your "M.O. Code" fill out required information on purchase sheet > Contact company and place order > Return SDELC credit card.
There are already many accounts established with our frequently used vendors. All the sign-in information is located in the team LastPass account.
Another route of purchase involves "Show-Me Shop" which includes preferred vendors and discounted prices. This includes vendors such as Amazon, Lowes, (others).

Must have a quote from the company. When you request a quote, it is good practice to send them our Tax information just incase they don't have it. Quote turnaround times can be anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks. Make sure you get everything you need on that quote, and that is is NON-TAXABLE!
After finalizing your quote, categorize each item by their SAFB category and total each one up. Send the quote and SAFB category totals to the SDELC Staff {Dr. Ramsay and Sandee Champ (or Chana Moreland if unavailable)}. The SDELC has provided this form for the process.
Purchase the items
Make sure the company has our Tax Number on file. We are not to be charged tax.
