In Spring 2026, UC Irvine successfully launched UCIBuy+, a campuswide procurement platform designed to modernize and streamline the purchasing experience across the university. Two years in the making, the launch marks a significant milestone in advancing procurement operations through improved efficiency, transparency, and user-centered design.

Built on the JAGGAER platform, UCIBuy+ provides an integrated purchasing environment that supports the full procurement lifecycle—from requisitions and approvals to supplier engagement and contract workflows. The implementation introduces more intuitive purchasing pathways, enhanced visibility into procurement activity, and standardized processes that help strengthen compliance and improve operational consistency.

The successful deployment reflects a highly collaborative effort involving Procurement Services, campus stakeholders, technical teams, and subject matter experts who partnered to redesign workflows and prepare the university community for a major organizational change. Extensive training, support resources, and engagement efforts helped facilitate a smooth transition and drive campus adoption.

UCIBuy+ positions UC Irvine to better support its campus community while building a scalable foundation for future enhancements and innovation. The launch represents more than a technology implementation—it reflects UC Irvine’s continued commitment to modernizing procurement practices and delivering an improved experience for stakeholders across the institution and supplier community.
