EMWD Purchasing and Contracts

EMWD purchases a variety of inexpensive items utilizing procurement cards, or occasionally, petty cash. All other purchases for materials, equipment, supplies, and services (with the exception of public works construction) are the responsibility of the Purchasing Division and will be authorized by the issuance of a purchase order to the selected vendor.

The Purchasing staff uses the following three basic procurement methods

• Request for Quotation (RFQ)
• Invitation for Bid (IFB)
• Request for Proposal (RFP)
