Step 1: Identify a need for students

As an educator or staff member, the first step in ordering supplies is to identify a specific need for students. This could be related to classroom activities, laboratory experiments, or any other educational requirements. It's important to clearly understand what supplies or equipment are needed and why they are necessary for enhancing the learning experience of students.

Step 2: Download supplies/equipment request form
Once the need is identified, locate and download the supplies/equipment request form from the designated source. This could be a school or district website, an online portal, or any other designated platform for procurement requests. Make sure to use the most recent version of the form to ensure accuracy and compliance with procurement policies and procedures.

Step 3: Fill out the top half of the form with pertinent information
Fill out the top half of the request form with relevant information. This includes your name, site or school, room number, course title, and industry sector. Providing accurate and complete information will help in tracking and processing the request efficiently.

Step 4: Identify a vendor name and corresponding vendor number
Identify a vendor name and corresponding vendor number for the supplies or equipment you wish to order. This information can usually be found in catalogs, websites, or other procurement resources. It's important to choose a vendor that is approved by the school or district and has a good reputation for quality and reliability.

Step 5: Find and list items with model number, description, quantity, and price
Using the vendor's catalog or website, find and list the items you need on the request form. Include the model number, a brief description of the item, the quantity needed, and the price per item. Double-check the accuracy of the information to ensure that the right items are ordered and the prices are correctly recorded.

Step 6: Total the amount of items needed
Calculate the total amount for the items needed by multiplying the quantity with the price per item. Record the total amount on the request form. This will help in budgeting and tracking the overall cost of the order.

Step 7: Send the request form to the High School CTE coordinator
Once the request form is completed and reviewed for accuracy, send it to the High School CTE (Career Technical Education) coordinator or any designated personnel responsible for procurement in your school or district. Make sure to follow the designated process for submitting procurement requests, which may include email, online submission, or physical delivery.

Step 8: The coordinator will review the request and send it to ctefinance@fresnounified.org
The High School CTE coordinator or designated personnel will review the request for compliance with procurement policies, accuracy of information, and availability of budget. Once approved, the coordinator will forward the request to the designated email address, such as ctefinance@fresnounified.org or any other designated email for further processing.

By following these steps and ensuring accuracy in the request form, you can streamline the process of ordering supplies or equipment for students, ensuring that their educational needs are met efficiently and effectively. It's important to adhere to the procurement policies and procedures of your school or district to maintain transparency, accountability, and compliance in the purchasing process. Items will then be delivered to teacher.
