Order guide for purchasing Apple computers and devices
This article is a guide for faculty and staff to submit order requests for Apple computers and devices:
- Visit the Apple hardware that meets EWU's hardware standards solutions article for available options.
- Notify your Purchasing Agent that you'd like to purchase a computer and present your selection. If you do not know who your Purchasing Agent is, reach out to your College Business Officer (CBO).
- The Purchasing Agent with "Proposer" or "Registered Proposer" permissions creates a Proposal at EWU’s Apple Store: https://ecommerce.apple.com
- After the Proposal has been created, the Purchasing Agent creates a Purchasing Service Request and IT Service Request.
- All laptop or desktop computer purchases must be paid with Purchase Orders only. Any peripherals (docks, cables, adapters) can be purchased with a PCard from Apple or other vendors as needed (Amazon, etc.)
- After the proposal is created, the Purchasing Department converts the proposal to an order and generates a PO number that will be used to track the order.
- The Purchasing Agent will then enter the PO number into the IT Service Request.
Note: If you are a Purchasing Agent and wish to purchase Apple computers or devices, please see the Purchasing guide for Apple computers and devices article.
