The responsibility and authority for purchasing supplies, materials, equipment and services, and for determining the proper procurement method rests solely with Procurement except as delegated for small, limited purchases.
All purchases of goods and services valued at $50,000 or more in the aggregate in a 12-month period must be procured by the methods, for example, Competitive Sealed Proposal (CSP) or Request for Proposal (RFP), etc., in the statute that provide the best value for ACC.
