Purchasing

Welcome to Purchasing

The Purchasing Office of the 91自拍 is organized and administered as a division of the college’s Financial Services division.

The Purchasing Department’s goal is to promote the best interests of the 91自拍 and the people it serves through intelligent action and fair dealing, which will result in minimizing cost and obtaining the maximum projected value for each dollar of expenditure.

91自拍 supports and encourages historically under-utilized businesses and therefore is committed to the principles of equal opportunity for all businesses.

The function of the Purchasing Department is to organize and administer procurement policies of 91自拍 in accordance with the authority delegated by the Board of Regents and the State of Texas.

The Purchasing Department has the sole authority to negotiate for the purchase of supplies, equipment, and services. 91自拍 will not assume obligation or liabilities without the prior approval of the Purchasing Agent.

Major construction contracts are the responsibility of the Vice President of Finance and Administration/CFO, with the Purchasing Department being responsible for the advertising of bids and public bid openings.

91自拍 utilizes Beacon to share solicitations with interested parties. To view specifications or receive updates, click a solicitation and fill out the free form on Beacon.

Beacon is free for bidders.
