Furniture and furnishings design and specifications are managed by IU Interior Design/Capital Projects, and we partner with IU Purchasing for procurement.
A Capital Projects request for service should be completed when acquiring and/or reconfiguring furniture or furnishings for any IU-owned or -occupied space, particularly for custom items. Select “Furniture Only” on the Capital Projects request for service form.
Some standard furniture and furnishings do not require a Capital Projects request for service and may be purchased directly through Kuali Financial System (KFS). For a complete list, which you should check periodically for updates, visit the IU Purchasing website and select the furniture spreadsheet.
Examples of standard items that may be purchased directly through KFS include:
- Bookcases
- Coat hooks, racks and trees
- Corkboards
- Ergonomic products
- File cabinets
- Folding chairs and tables
- Guest chairs
- Lab and exam stools
- Lecterns
- Lamps
- Task chairs
- Wire shelving
For additional information about placing standard furniture and furnishings orders and installation of standard items, visit the IU Purchasing website.
