CCS serves a six-county area. The Purchasing Department seeks equipment, supplies and services giving prime consideration to price, quality, delivery, departmental requirements and vendor performance. The department ensures that all purchases follow state laws, procedures and regulations, and verifies that competitive procurement requirements are met, that funding is appropriate and that proper approvals have been obtained.
Parking permits for vendors are available.
CCS purchases a wide variety of supplies, equipment and services for all areas of instruction, administration and maintenance and repair. The Purchasing Department prepares specifications and obtains competition either by formal invitation to bid, request for quotation or telephone quotes. The manner in which competitive prices are received depends on the value of the request. These are sealed formal documents and the original must be received. Faxed bids are not allowed.
