Cellular Phone Services
The Purchasing Department has cellular phone rate plans that
provide a wide range of price options and phone features.
These plans incorporate digital technology resulting in improved
sound and performance. By using these rate plans, we will
leverage our full buying power to take advantage of a highly
competitive telecommunications marketplace.
New
procurement procedures have also been established to ensure
that individuals requesting cellular phones have obtained
the appropriate deans’ or directors’ approval prior
to purchase. The new procedures will also enable Purchasing
to gather phone usage statistics, so that greater discounts
can be negotiated in the future.
To
assist departments in budgeting and tracking phone charges,
the Controller’s Office has created a new object code
specifically for cellular phone usage. The code number is
3030 and must be used for all transactions processed after
this date.
Special
note:
Cell phone requests are not submitted
through RIAS.
For Cingular Wireless
a cell phone order form is to be completed and faxed to Purchasing
located on your campus.
For Nextel, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless,
printout and attach a copy of their plan/phone sheet or order form, indicate
the plan/phone requested and fax along with the cell phone
order form to Purchasing
located on your campus. Monthly charges are sent directly the address the cellular phone was shipped. A Quick Order for the monthly charges should be processed in RIAS, then attach the invoice to the Quick Order and send to Susan Burr in the Office of Budget Management. A Blanket Purchase Order can also be used for these payments. Write the Blanket Order number on the invoice and send to Susan Burr in the Office of Budget Management
Cingular Wireless Users: Once
your Cingular Wireless cellular phone number has been assigned,
please contact Susan Burr in the Office of Budget Management
@ 732/445-3857. Please provide her with the new Cingular
cellular phone number and the six-digit Rutgers University
account number where you want the charges to appear.
For
further clarification on the cell phone ordering procedures
and/or questions, call the buyer within the purchasing office
located on your campus.
