Campus Procurement Guide

Procurement and Business Services manage the expenditures made in obtaining the goods and services required by the University. Procurement and Business Services assist in procuring much of the University's higher cost (more than $5,000) equipment, materials, supplies and services. In addition, Procurement and Business Services is responsible for paying the University's bills and travel expenses and for monitoring all purchases for compliance with applicable regulations.

Procurement and Business Services is committed to meeting the needs of the University and its departments and to making sure that state and federal laws and University regulations are followed. Laws regarding the use of public funds are very specific, so it is important that University procedures be carefully followed. Every expenditure must be prudent and directly benefit Auburn University. The University will assume no liability for the payment of purchases which were not made through approved purchasing procedures.
