University Procurement Services participated in an innovative, Rutgers-wide coalition to produce personal protective equipment (PPE) and medical device parts for the university’s frontline health care workers currently combating COVID-19. This endeavor, known as the RU 3D PPE project, launched on March 26 and has produced laser-cut face shields and 3D-printed headbands through a network of 40 3D printers at Rutgers facilities.

As we continue our efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19 among students, faculty, and staff, University Procurement Services (UPS) has updated the Travel and Expense procedures to allow reimbursements to be made exclusively by direct deposit.
If your unit collected revenue from students using a system other than the term bill systems, such as continuing education programs, and you must cancel a course or event as a result of COVID-19 and refund all or a portion of that revenue, then you will need to initiate the Non-PO Upload request process through RU Marketplace. Please use the new Activity value (9105, COVID-19) and the appropriate natural accounts for these requests.
