Query from a member -

All Catholic Education schools have now had to go to a purchasing system where all suppliers need to be “Onboard” a list purchase from.

In the past we have done a lot of online ordering for our department, especially when it comes to electrical componentry. For example we bought 400 servos for $600 at the end of last year however if we purchased from a Zycus approved supplier such as Jaycar, the same amount of servos would cost us $4400. I was hoping to reach out to some other CEWA schools that run some Robotics/engineering/electronics courses and see how they have got around this and where they have found to be affordable places to purchase from.
