Purchasing Office

Department Overview

As a central resource, the purchasing office serves the College community by developing purchasing policies and procedures, providing tools to enable the best value purchase of goods and services, and assuring that College purchasing complies with applicable federal and industry standards. The College’s purchasing is decentralized in that individual faculty and staff across campus determine business needs and make purchasing decisions on a daily basis. As such, each member of the College community that participates in the buying process accepts a responsibility as a steward of the College's financial resources and a commitment to the highest ethical standards.
