Purchasing and Bid Portals
Purchasing Portal
UTRGV utilizes an eProcurement system called iShopUTRGV, developed by Jaggaer. Employees may access the Purchasing Portal through my.utrgv.edu
All Purchase Orders and Contracts must be processed through iShopUTRGV prior to receiving goods or services in order to be compliant with UTRGV, state, and federal policies and procedures.
Roles are designed to provide different responsibilities to users in iShopUTRGV. All active employees are assigned a "Shopper" role, allowing users to create orders in the system. All other roles are assigned to users depending on their department responsibilities. The addition of user roles is reviewed on a case by case basis and, if approved, requires annual training to ensure the user is aware of current policies and procedures.
