Please note:

The university will provide our design, editorial, and production services to you without charge. If time does not permit us to take on your project, we may advise you to employ professionals outside the university. In any case, you will be expected to pay such vendors as newspapers and printing companies. For each job that involves printing, we make arrangements with appropriate vendors, matching their capabilities with the job's requirements. We will discuss estimated printing costs with you before you make any commitment. If your project will cost more than $5,000, UMass Boston purchasing policy requires us to seek competitive bids from at least three comparable vendors. Under certain condition, the Purchasing Office requests a formal bidding process that can take up to four weeks.

Once the cost of your job is determined, the responsible person in your area must prepare a purchase order and call the assigned designer and email noel.cotterell@umb.edu with the purchase order number. Please note that under no circumstances will your job go to the vendor without a purchase order.

Comments or Questions

Please use this space for additional queries, explanations, or requests.

What to Expect Next

After you have submitted your request, a representative of our office will contact you to discuss your project, and to begin the planning and scheduling process. If you have a question or concern at this point, please call Noel Cotterell at 617.287.5386 or send an email to noel.cotterell@umb.edu.
