M-Marketsite

M-marketsite is the university’s online catalog ordering system where faculty and staff can place orders from many different suppliers. Shopping through M-marketsite is similar to shopping online, and it offers many benefits:

One login gives you access to multiple suppliers and products, and centrally located catalogs
Easy to identify and place orders for contracted items
“Favorites” shopping-cart functionality offers quick reordering of frequently ordered products
Prices listed are the university’s negotiated prices
Suppliers listed all accept shortcode(s)
Orders up to $25,000 can be placed without Procurement approval, since the competitive bid process has already taken place. Products and prices can be compared among many suppliers prior to ordering
Required approvals are automatically routed as needed
Ordering and invoicing are done electronically
Order history is available online in M-Pathways and in M-marketsite

M-marketsite is integrated with the M-Pathways ePro requisition. For authorization to place orders through M-marketsite, users must submit an online access request.
