During weeks 25–35, no new direct procurement will begin, and purchases that require card payment will not be carried out.
Purchases, procurement and expenses
Invoices, expenses and travel bills
Ways of contact
- invoice@eecs.kth.se for all matters relating to customer and supplier invoices and other payments that do not refer to expenses and travel bills.
- reserakning@eecs.kth.se for all matters relating to expenses and travel bills.
Both addresses are monitored throughout the summer, but with a certain delayed response time due to lower staffing.
Financial approver
If you usually handle invoices and purchases, it is important that you activate your replacement before the holidays. Contact invoice@eecs.kth.se if you do not have a replacement.
Events
The event team will have longer response times during week 28-33. If you want to get in touch with the event team during this period, contact them via service@eecs.kth.se

Recruitment advertisements (publication of ads) will be closed for the summer, 10 July – 4 August (w. 28-31). The deadline for publication requests is Tuesday, 4 July. Consider extending any ads that expire when recruitment ads are closed for the summer.
Submit publication requests at least three business days in advance to ensure that ads are published and extended on time.

IT support is open all summer, but with a slightly lower service level due to lower staffing.

Signature from the Head of School during the summer
The school's office is not on site between weeks 28 – mid-31, so responses and signatures have longer response times. You can reach the school's office at ledningsstod@eecs.kth.se
The head of school function is staffed remotely during the summer should an emergency arise; you can reach the head of school at skolchef@eecs.kth.se
Contracts that will require legal review and signature via RSO before and during the summer
As usual, you contact avtal@eecs.kth.se for guidance and handling. The function has lower local staffing at the school and centrally at RSO, the central department for research support. In the case of urgent matters, the contract function and RSO can prioritise handling and initiate these even during the holidays.
