Document Approvals & Routing Grid - Equipment Fabrication
Last Updated: 05/09/2006*
ACTIVITY/
DOCUMENT
APPROVAL THRESHOLD
Equipment Fabrication ALL DOLLAR AMOUNTS

If an item is to be fabricated by a University department, the Equipment Fabrication Form must be sent to Inventory Services explaining what is being built, where it is located, which department "owns" it, and what account number is being used to purchase the components. When referencing a sponsored account the form requires a certified approver's signature.  Inventory Services will then assign a U of M identification number to it, and any invoices paid referencing the fabrication will be added to that U of M identification number.

Routing of transactions for purchases related to equipment fabrication will follow the existing thresholds for the type of activity employed.  For example, any pieces exceeding $1,000 would route to a certified approver.  Any purchase for equipment fabrication moved via an IX would route to a certified approver.  Etc.
