Although Amazon.com may be used for District purchases, it first requires approval from the Business office.

To receive approval please submit a request to the BOSC. In most cases, if items can be purchased from another vendor, the request will not be approved. The following is how to make a purchase with Amazon.*

  • Submit a request to the BOSC for approval providing the following:
    • A direct link to the items you wish to purchase and the total amount of the purchase
    • Rationale (why it has to be purchased through Amazon)
  • Once approved through the BOSC, create a requisition in Alio for this purchase
    • Select vendor # 256, Amazon.com
    • Enter your BOSC ticket number on the Internal Line under Special Instructions
    • Include a 15% line item for estimated shipping or the actual shipping, if known, and finalize the requisition
  • Once it becomes a purchase order the Business Office will place the order and send you an order confirmation
