Purchasing
  Mission
The mission of the Purchasing Department is to assist faculty, staff, and students with the identification, selection, and timely acquisition of required goods and services. This is to be accomplished as economically as possible, within accepted standards of quality using professional ethics and best business practices.

The overall goal of the Purchasing Department is to provide for the purchase of materials, supplies, equipment, and services, with the objective that they will be available at the proper time, the proper place, in quantity, quality and price consistent with the needs of the University. Purchasing gives prime consideration to the University's interests while seeking to maintain and further long-term ethical supplier relationships.
