Supplies

Stores & Receiving provides the campus with quality products and services, competitive pricing, and timely delivery in a professional manner.

Stores

Through Stores, departments are able to purchase at competitive prices:

• Office supplies like copy paper, pens, pencils, phones, charging cords, and more
• Cleaning and disinfection supplies
• Personal protective equipment (PPE)
• Materials and equipment for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO)
• Restaurant supplies
• … and much more!

Ordering these products is simple using iStores, (https://istores.fs.illinois.edu) an online ordering system in the my.FS Portal (https://my.fs.illinois.edu/fsportal).

There, it’s easy to find supplies, track orders, manage shopping cart items, and check out. Simply log in using your NetID and password to experience the updated page displays and easy-to-use products queue via your desktop or handheld device.

The homepage provides a view of the latest inventory, your recently purchased items, and seasonal or promotional supplies. Enhanced search functionality also offers a categorized drop-down menu to more efficiently navigate the site.

Any orders made within the last year will appear in your iStores profile history, and previous account information will still be available by searching the “Order Resources” section. You can also see if a product is currently in stock.  

Receiving

Campus Receiving is responsible for pickups and deliveries to all areas
of the campus.

In addition to delivering orders placed through iStores, Receiving is also the centralized receiving site for orders placed by any department. Freight companies, unable to deliver to a street address, deliver packages to the Receiving department which delivers the items to the specific room or lab.

This process also reduces the amount of truck traffic navigating the main thoroughfares of campus.
