Subject: Executive Announcement: Duck Depot Expansion 2025

To Executive Leadership,

We’re excited to share that the University of Oregon is upgrading our Duck Depot procurement system through a partnership with Unimarket. 

This initiative will simplify purchasing and payment processes across campus.

Key improvements include:

  • Faster vendor onboarding with a new online registration system.
  • Streamlined purchase order workflow, consolidating all orders through Duck Depot.
  • Integrated invoicing module for smoother invoice processing and reconciliation.
  • Elimination of Duck Depot PCards and associated reconciliation processes.

After a year of planning with various stakeholders, we’re moving into implementation. Over the next few months, Purchasing and Contracting Services and Business Affairs may be reaching out to some of your team to help us pilot the new rollout.  

System go-live is targeted for the end of fall term. Further details and updates will be available soon at the Duck Depot Expansion webpage.

Thank you for your support as we improve and modernize eProcurement at the University of Oregon.
