FSHN Office Procedures - Central Stores Ordering

Central Stores orders are now being placed directly through CyBuy on Access Plus.

CyBuy

The FSHN department is requiring all associates to place orders through ISU’s CyBuy system. Currently the following vendors are available on CyBuy: Fisher Scientific, Sigma Aldrich, Qiagen, Invitrogen, IDT, Dell, CDW-G, Office Max, Central Stores and Chem Stores.

This program has been designed to allow for the procurement of supplies from contracted vendors in a streamlined online marketplace available through AccessPlus. Higher limits, less paperwork, and faster receipt of orders are just a few of the benefits.
