New contracts with promotional items suppliers

PPS is pleased to introduce two new vendors for the purchase of licensed promotional items, including a new ‘punchout’ catalog in UND Marketplace (Jaggaer). Departments are reminded that items purchased for promotional use must have a UND business purpose and should not exceed de minimis amounts per person when distributed.

Please view this informational sheet for ordering details

  • Staples Promo — Via UND Marketplace Punchout, available July 20th. A competitively awarded contract available for large/bulk purchases of promotional items
  • Game One — Official Adidas Partner of UND Athletics. A competitively awarded contract available for Official UND Adidas apparel (i.e., hoodies, t-shirts, and on-field gear)

Any UND-licensed vendor (including local vendors e.g. UND Bookstore, Probitas, DayDream Specialties) may be used for orders under $10,000; Staples, Game One, and the UND Bookstore have been competitively awarded contracts meaning they can be used for purchases up to and over $10,000, streamlining larger purchases above the competitive procurement threshold. Note that the UND Bookstore offers 20% off for all UND departments for supplies, including promotional purchases.

For personal-use purchases, Staff and Faculty are reminded to visit the UND Bookstore where they receive 10% off with a valid UND ID (excluding textbooks, sale merchandise, computer hardware, and academically discounted software).
