Replacement Copiers

To coincide with the implementation of the new general ledger system going into effect on July 1, 2007, existing copiers at the College will be replaced.

Those copiers currently under multi-year contracts will be replaced as multi-year funds will not be able to be carried forward into the new fiscal year.  All the new copiers installed under the Conway Office Products contract have already been converted to the new method of payment which will now be on departmental P-Cards.  Rich Cressotti from Conway Office Products will be contacting all departments to set up appointments for reviewing department needs and doing work sheets to be forwarded to Lester Perreault in Procurement Services for the processing of replacement copiers.  It is requested that departments plan to replace their copiers at the same time so scheduling, installation, and training can be better co-ordinated.

Please contact Lester Perreault in Procurement Services at 646-1853 for further information.

 

Typewriter Repairs

The Procurement Department will no longer be responsible for the cost of typewriter repairs as we have been in the past, individual departments will be responsible for this charge beginning FY07.

If you need typewriter repair service please call 1-800-639-8980 and give your Requisition Number, Billing Information, Contact Name, Telephone Number, Department, Room/Building, Office Hours, Type of Machine you have, and the Dartmouth Control Tag Number.

When you receive the invoice it should have your requisition number on it. If it does not, please add this number to the invoice prior to signing it, and forwarding to Accounts Payable for payment.

Thank you

Tammy Moffatt

Thursday of each week I will provide Tatha Lewis Dartmouth’s Unicel Account Representative with the information I have received.

Tatha will then make the necessary adjustments to your account and you will be notified via e-mail when to expect your discount will be applied and whether or not it will be prorated.
