Fedex Agreement Renewal

June 1, 2009

The Purchasing Office would like to provide an update on the Federal Express Agreement which was renewed by E&I this month. Effective June 1, FedEx will be changing their rate structure which will result in an increase in rates for some FedEx services. Purchasing is reviewing these increases against the current market and will provide additional information shortly.

In the meantime, you should view the new rates which are listed on the preferred vendor website for FedEx located on the Preferred Vendors page to see how the change in rates effects your unique shipping needs.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding our new Agreement with FedEx please contact the University’s FedEx Representative Joselyn Henderson at 816-554-6609 or by email at jchenderson1@fedex.com or Natalie Calleja in Purchasing at nc2246@columbia.edu.

Thank you for your continued support.
