Order Management - norlab-ulaval/Norlab_wiki GitHub Wiki

Order management at UL is a bit tricky, this page proposes a set of guidelines to help you minimize the time between order and delivery.

Authorized sellers

The University has a list of official sellers from which it is easier to order. You should always try to go with these if possible. Ask Edith to know if a seller is in the list. (Amazon is not, we should avoid it as much as possible)

For office stuff:

  • Staples
  • Coop Zone

For electronics:

  • Digikey
  • Mouser
  • Sparkfun
  • BestBuy
  • Coopzone

For hardware:

  • McMaster-Carr

Others that we know of:

  • Amain Hobbies (for LiPo batteries)
  • Omer de Serres Place Ste-Foy
  • Gosselin

Quotes

To simplify the job of the department, we usually provide official quotes before ordering. To get these, you sometimes need to chat with representatives on some websites or find a "get a quote" link somewhere. The quotes should include the right billing and shipping addresses:

Billing address:
