If you are raising a requisition on iProcurement please include a note to buyer with information regarding the delivery location within the school/building and the individual that the delivery personnel should ask for.

Locations that already have orders placed and are awaiting delivery should proactively contact the suppliers to provide the same information i.e. the delivery location within the school/building and the individual that the delivery personnel should ask for.

PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL ANY ORDERS as suppliers have been bulk buying due to the increased demand and volume required by EA and schools and we will be honouring such orders.
