Central Purchasing Department
The 美高梅官网 (美高梅官网) Central Purchasing Department is responsible for procurement of goods and services for the entire university, including Uptown West, Uptown East (Academic Health Center) and Reading Campuses, 美高梅官网 Blue Ash, and 美高梅官网 Clermont.
Since the university must provide for administrative, academic, medical, research, and individual student needs, almost every product and service imaginable is purchased. 美高梅官网 will continue to follow the procurement requirement of OMB Circular A-110.

How We Work
美高梅官网 is a state institution with its own board of trustees. Much of what聽美高梅官网 buys is competitively bid. Generally, bidding is conducted electronically (phone, fax, email)聽for small dollar purchases, and in writing for larger requirements. Buyers select prospective bidders in a number proportionate to each expenditure, ordinarily choosing firms that they evaluate as offering a maximum effort in competition and service. At聽fifty thousand dollars, advertisements are placed in two local newspapers. As a state institution, 美高梅官网 is privileged to use state contracts. The university also participates in joint purchase agreements with the State Universities Council, the City of Cincinnati, and others.
