Drake University has exclusively contracted with Office Depot/Max for the purchase of all office supplies. They provide next day desktop delivery, unless an item is on backorder. This is the same contract that the Iowa Regent Universities are using so we have discounted pricing due to our consortium volume.

Please refrain from using Amazon, Walmart, Target, Staples etc. for office supplies. As one of the largest office supply companies in the U.S., they can typically find the item you need at the lowest price.

If you find that an item is higher with Office Depot, you can contact Bryan Bellis at bryan.bellis@officedepot.com and he will work with you to find an equivalent item or obtain bulk pricing if needed. If you need to shop in an actual store, there is a card you can print out from the purchasing website to take with you to use with your Drake P-Card so you will receive the same discounting.
