Buying Furniture
Planning
Making the purchase
- All furniture purchases require that a Purchase Requisition be processed
by Procurement Services because these purchases must meet strict
fire code standards as well as state requirements regarding the use
of Virginia Correctional Enterprises.
- Allow ample lead time.
Preparing for Installation
- Know who will receive the furniture and determine whether it will be received at a loading dock.
- Identify who will unpack the furniture or equipment and inspect for damage.
- Arrange to have someone install the furniture or equipment if necessary.
- If the item is heavy, large, or awkward to move, make prior arrangements
with Facilities Management
for additional moving assistance.
- Know where to properly dispose of packaging. Determine
if packaging can be recycled.
- Plan for relocation or surplus
of any old furniture or equipment.
