PCAB SAP Ariba Phase I

We are happy to announce that Los Angeles Unified District (LAUSD) is transitioning to SAP Ariba Supplier Lifecycle and Performance (SLP). SLP will allow suppliers to self-serve and maintain their data through SAP Ariba.
Ariba Phase 1: These enhancements will change the processes for vendors and procurement staff.
- Supplier Management (Vendor registration)
- Solicitation/eBids)-Coming Soon!
Existing suppliers will receive an emailed invitation from the Ariba Network to update your LAUSD profile over the next few months, between October and December 2023. Suppliers with current supplier numbers that begin with "1" and are 10 digits long MUST wait for the official emailed invitation to avoid creating duplicate accounts.
Brand New Suppliers who have never done business with LAUSD can start the registration process for an LAUSD Supplier number by visiting the Self Registration page.
Conducting business on the Ariba Network will be necessary to continue doing business with LAUSD.
There is no cost to doing business with LAUSD on the Ariba Network Standard Account. Basic functionalities are provided with a free-of-charge standard account. However, Ariba may suggest for you to pay to upgrade to their Enterprise Account. This is not necessary as the standard account allows you to continue working with LAUSD.
Here’s what you will need to complete the registration and interface with Ariba:
- Company name, address and contact information
- Tax ID (FEIN or SSN)
- Existing Ariba network suppliers will need your Ariba login info
- New Ariba network suppliers will need to add Product categories applicable to your business
- Attach recent W-9
- Number of employees and average annual sales
