Vendor Database Registration

LSU Health Sciences Center New Orleans has instituted a new vendor database management system.  Take 5 minutes to register to have the opportunity to be informed of our solicitation opportunities!  The purchasing staff at LSU will use the vendors in this database to build their bid lists.  Register on the new site even if you are already a vendor used by LSUHSC or have a current contract in place with LSU.  This new system allows you to specify the commodity codes in which your company specializes and is self maintained. If something in your profile changes, it is your responsibility to make us aware.
