The Amazon punchout catalog in Aggie Enterprise will be unavailable from Tuesday, July 28 through Friday, July 31. The downtime is needed to move the catalog to a UC Davis-specific instance.

Last year, the UC Davis School of Medicine received a grant to pilot a National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) Modular system and show proof of its capabilities.  Supply Chain Management partnered early on to assist with procurement, service and storage needs to ensure that the demonstration schedule was met.  

The current Administration recently announced significant tariffs that will impact nearly all trading partners of the United States.

Considering the uncertainty this creates, it is imperative that we take proactive measures to mitigate disruptions. 

The most effective and actionable step is to prioritize the use of UC systemwide contracted suppliers whenever possible.

Beginning Monday, March 31, a new webform will be used to make requests for Carve Outs to UC’s Covered Services policy.
