Purchasing Department's Product Catalog

  • ** DELAYED ORDER FULFILLMENT NOTICE: Due to current manufacturing constraints and supply chain issues (locally, nationally, and globally), products/goods may be limited or unavailable. Also, please be aware that the time from when an order is placed to the time of its delivery may be significantly longer than usual. Schools and department sites should submit orders well in advance to avoid issues. Your patience and understanding are appreciated during this difficult time and trust that the Purchasing Department is working diligently to meet the procurement needs of the District. **

    Please check back often for updates to this web page's information because updates are made continuously.

    If you need assistance entering a Purchase Requisition (PR) for your order, please contact Melissa Lewis in the Purchasing Department at (775) 850-8025 or email: mlewis@washoeschools.net

    All funds deposited with the Washoe County School District, regardless of source, are considered "District funds" and must be handled by District policies, regulations, and procedures. Although schools and departments are allocated funds into their respective budgets for a given period, these allocations are considered only an authorization to requisition, not to purchase without the required approval.

      • As of 01/01/2022, a nationwide cut-off time for next-day deliveries has been implemented. For example, stocked orders placed on Monday after 3:00 PM are expected to be delivered by Wednesday (sooner if possible). This action is intended to be temporary to help ODP manage the COVID-induced labor shortages. Orders placed before 3:00 pm will continue to be delivered the next day.

      • Due to the recent government tariff changes, ODP is now adding import surcharges to certain orders. The charge will appear at the item level when looking at the cart. At the same time, Staples is not charging any import surcharges. For all orders, please compare ODP's prices with the added import surcharges against Staples prices to see which is more cost-effective. 

      • ODP Business Solutions is offering a "Work From Home Program" in which employees can receive District discounted pricing for personal orders. Please register HERE or contact:  Lisa Crapo Phone: (916) 569-5125 / Email: Lisa.Crapo@workspaceinteriorsod.com
