Airgas: Departments should use the Airgas punch-out to create a requisition for items needed. Additionally, departments should create a “blanket requisition/PO” for an estimated dollar amount for reoccurring gases needed for the Fiscal Year or specific period of service. The “blanket PO” will be sent to Airgas and periodic purchases can be made against the PO by providing Airgas with the blanket PO number when placing individual orders. This process can be continued until the dollar amount of the PO is exhausted or has been increased by submitting a change order form.

 

Stillwater Steel: Departments will use the “non-catalog” item to create a requisition for items needed. Stillwater Steel does not have a punch-out catalog. Additionally, departments should create a “blanket requisition/PO” for an estimated dollar amount for reoccurring gases needed for the Fiscal Year or specific period of service. The “blanket” PO will be sent to Stillwater Steel and periodic purchases can be made against the PO by providing Stillwater Steel with the blanket PO number when placing individual orders. This process can be continued until the dollar amount of the PO is exhausted or has been increased by submitting a change order form.
