May 2007 Welcome to the KCDA Purchasing HotSheetThe KCDA Hot Sheet has been developed to alert members to new contracts, market or price changes, and contracts that are nearing renewal. In this issue you will find: § Supply Link Back in Business/Usage
KCDA Supply Link - Back in Business Due to incredibly high usage on Supply Link you may have noticed some periods of slow response time. We have been very busy, replacing two servers, increasing the data capacity 10-fold, upgrading to state of the art, all components down to the cabling and fixing a programming bug. We now have the system operating at full speed and encourage you to challenge the improvements we have made. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your patience while we located and fixed the issues. Some Interesting Supply Link Numbers: § Since KCDA first offered Supply Link in January of 2002 active users have grown to 12,353. § 172,687 carts (orders) have been created with 144,445 of those completed. § 13,279 carts are currently parked for future activation and completion. § Of the 296 School Districts in Washington State all but 12 are using Supply Link. § There are 13,272 items listed on Supply Link.
Supply Link Enhancement Teachers busily preparing to leave for the summer sometimes park carts and forget to check them out. Now district approvers have the ability to locate, activate, edit and check out these carts. It is easy to do… In your cart manager select cart status “all”, click “show group carts” and click go. The carts can be sorted by any of the fields. If you know the cart number or PO that can be added for a faster search.
