Improvements to Purchasing Policies Manual

We are excited to announce that we have finished an in-depth review and update of our Purchasing Policies Manual as part of our commitment to Pillar 5: Institutional Excellence.

To better serve campus, language has been clarified where necessary and outdated sections have been removed. The entire Manual has been reformatted to follow the standard policy template, improve definitions and procedures, and include frequently asked questions and related information. Since some sections have been renumbered, we have included a crosswalk within the Table of Contents.

It is important to note that this is a streamline of the current Manual and there are no additional polices, nor have there been any changes to policy.

Please review the Purchasing Policies Manual in its entirety and note that all URLs have changed. Update your previous bookmarks as appropriate to reference the content in this manual.

For any questions regarding purchasing policies, please contact Ted Nasser at 520-621-5449 or enasser@arizona.edu.
