- The departments may process purchases of equipment, supplies, or materials (with the over site of the Purchasing Director) from $5,000.00 to $49,999.99 this is the informal bid requirement.
- Purchases of equipment, supplies, or materials valued at $50,000.00 and above are processed by the Purchasing Director through the formal bid process.
