Unimarket awarded approved vendor status for Illinois public schools.
Annapolis, MD - Unimarket, a leading eProcurement software provider, has announced that it has been adopted as an approved vendor by the Illinois Public Higher Education Cooperative (IPHEC).
IPHEC is a cooperative organization comprising all 13 public institutions of higher education in Illinois, including Chicago State University, Illinois State University, and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The organization’s adoption of Unimarket means that public schools across the state now have more choice when looking to optimize and improve their processes through eProcurement.
