The Purchasing Department strives to coordinate the overall procurement efforts of the University and to ensure that compliance with the regulations established by the Pennsylvania State Procurement Code are followed.

We are dedicated to providing the timely processing of requests for purchases of goods and services, identifying new sources of supplies and services.

Staff members will assist departments in preparing specifications and evaluating materials, supplies, equipment and services to ensure proper quality, quantity, and timeliness of service.

The Purchasing Department is also responsible for the administration of the University Purchasing Card Program.
