Basis of Award

Normally the Purchasing Department will accept the low bid received, provided that the items/services meet the requirements and specifications indicated on the bid document. Questions of acceptability are resolved by the buyer, often with technical assistance of other University personnel. The University reserves the right to make award to other than the low bidder when, in our judgment, other considerations such as service, product life cycle cost, vendor proximity to the University, special product feature, etc., outweigh price and are deemed more advantageous to the University.
