KUPPS Mission

The KU Procure to Pay System is a standardized e-procurement platform that the University of Kansas has adopted to ensure compliance, eliminate paperwork, and streamline purchasing functions.

Objectives of KUPPS

Reduce Costs: KUPPS helps to reduce costs by centrally collecting information used to negotiate contract pricing and terms, ensuring the University receives the best price possible.

Automate & Simplify: KUPPS automates the input of payment vouchers related to punch-out orders, eliminating manual keystrokes in the procure-to-pay process.

Improve & Standardize Business Process and Efficiencies: KUPPS standardizes the purchasing process, eliminating wasteful or inefficient administrative steps.

Improve Institutional Risk Management Control: KUPPS enhances the visibility of all purchasing and creates detailed audit histories for monitoring and approving orders.

Benefits of KUPPS

Simplified Shopping: Provides a central location for access to online shopping, facilitates attachment of supporting documentation, and creates electronic invoices.

Enhanced Order Tracking and Reporting: Creates permanent records with trackable workflow and granular data that can be used to report purchasing trends.

Accounting Control: Budget detail is input before an order is placed to ensure that funding is reviewed before the commitment to pay.
