VENDORS

The State of Massachusetts has a system for state agencies to send out bids to several companies when looking to spend $2,000 or more with one vendor during a fiscal year.  This applies to the college when ordering such things as t-shirts, promotional materials, office supplies and transportation on a regular basis.  Bids are sent out to at least three (3) vendors in each category and the purchasing department will decide which vendor will offer the best service for the least amount of money.  When a bid has been approved, all departments and organizations are to use the preferred vendor unless special circumstances are involved. When the state does not have a contracted vendor for an item that your organization needs, you are free to work with any other company or service provider. 

Below you will find a list of State Contracted Vendors and a list of Recommended Vendors, who provide services not under contract.  If you have any questions about what vendor to use, please speak with your Program Advisor.
