Warehouse Club Purchasing: Costco
This message has been approved by Michael Williams, Associate Vice President for Finance & Administration, for distribution to all faculty and staff.
The University has purchased an annual membership with Costco for business related purchases, effective May 1, 2018. There is no longer a need for departments to purchase their own membership.
Effective May 1st, Costco will no longer accept purchase orders (POs) issued by FSU as part of a new corporate policy. However, FSU faculty/staff may continue to shop for goods at Costco in compliance with purchasing guidelines using their FSU issued P-Card (Visa). When entering Costco, FSU employees should show their FSU ID to the greeter and indicate they are shopping on behalf of FSU. During check-out employees must show their FSU ID and someone will come and authorize purchases under the FSU membership account. Current blanket PO’s with an expiration after April 30, 2018 should be closed.
For further details on purchasing from Costco, please visit the Procurement Services website at https://procurement.fsu.edu/vendors/costco. If you have further questions, please contact Edward Acoff in Procurement Services at 644-6840 or eacoff@fsu.edu.
