NOTE: The University transacts with suppliers through the SAP Ariba Business Network (“SBN”) to electronically exchange purchase orders, order confirmations, advanced shipping notices, invoices, and payment status for all purchases – direct goods, indirect goods, and services. The University encourages suppliers to submit electronic invoices to the University through the SBN. Unless otherwise provided in this RFP, or by the University in writing, the offeror agrees to conduct business transactions with the University using the SBN. Offerors are required to understand how to use the SBN and are responsible for any additional costs that the offeror chooses to incur. There is no cost to transact using a SBN Standard Account. Additional fees may be incurred using a SBN Enterprise Account.
Pennsylvania’s State System of Higher Education utilizes the SAP Business Network portal as our public bid board. This platform connects suppliers with purchasing opportunities across our universities and streamlines the procurement process.
