Procurement Services announces that after a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) and review process, Warehouse Direct has been awarded a five-year contract as Illinois Tech’s University Preferred Supplier for office supplies and related products. Mark your calendar to attend the upcoming Warehouse Direct Vendor Show!

Warehouse Direct was unanimously chosen by our university-wide RFP selection committee as our preferred vendor in this category because their proposal was the most advantageous to Illinois Tech. Preferred vendor highlights you can look forward to are competitive prices that will generate cost savings; excellent customer service and support; free, next-day shipping for all orders placed before 5 p.m. CT; and their robust, user-friendly online shopping catalog through our Buy It eMarketplace.

Learn about key products (and get product samples) at the upcoming Vendor Show hosted by Warehouse Direct. The event will be held on Wednesday, July 10 from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. in the Hermann Hall Gallery.

• You can meet the Warehouse Direct representatives and key product representatives from popular brands they carry, including 3M, BiC, Fellows, Pilot, and many others.
