Purchasing is responsible for obtaining materials, equipment, and services at the lowest cost and best value consistent with specified quality and delivery requirements as allowed by law. Purchases are made in accordance with Texas State Law; applicable federal laws including IRS regulations; and the Policies and Procedures of the Agency.

Policy provides that no commitment for materials, equipment, or services may be made without an approved purchase order. The Director of Purchasing and designated buyers have been delegated the responsibility and authority to issue these forms of legal contracts as binding agreements between the institution and its vendors.

Standard Terms and Conditions

The official purchase order contains an authorized purchase order number and signature.

Acounts Payable utilizes the Centralized Master Bidder's List (CMBL), maintained by the Texas Procurement and Support Services (TPASS) as our bidders list. Vendors are encouraged to review the application requirements and to get on the list.
