Purchasing

Campus Business Services Purchasing manages the acquisition processes to obtain food, equipment, and supplies for all units of University Dining Services and Campus Business Services.  We strive to promote supplier diversity and sustainable purchasing, in support of the mission, values and vision of the university.

The University of Richmond is committed to conducting its affairs in complete accordance with all applicable professional and ethical standards. 

Vendor bids are evaluated based on product quality, technical compliance, cost, service, and credentials of the vendor. Vendor awards are made in the best interest of the University. Any and all quotations and bids may be rejected when it is in the University's best interest to do so. Prices secured on quotations and bids are considered confidential and should not be discussed with other vendors by University personnel prior to the award of the transaction.
