CSU BUY P2P

CSUBUY Procure-to-Pay (P2P) – Coming Soon!

We’re excited to announce the launch of the new CSUBUY Procure-to-Pay (P2P) system, designed to streamline and improve the procurement and payment processes.  This enhanced platform will offer a more efficient, user-friendly experience. This site will serve as your resource for information on procuring, receiving, and paying for goods and services at CSUSB through our new platform, CSUBuy.
