For purchases over $15,000.00, your department is required to obtain a minimum of three quotes* by mail, email, or fax and submit them via Contract Request with the following information:
*A good-faith effort should be made to include at least one quote from a minority-owned or woman-owned business. In some instances, competition does not exist, or it is in the university’s best interest to use a particular product or service. If your purchase meets these conditions, attach a completed Exclusive Acquisition Justification Form (unsigned) to your Contract Request. Bidding may be bypassed at the determination of Central Procurement. Business Office Support Services will coordinate with Central Procurement to determine the best next steps and communicate via your request throughout the process. For more information about exclusive acquisition justifications, see the Handbook of Business Procedures 7.5.3. Exclusive Acquisitions. |
