Purchasing is your service department. We're here to help you to make the best purchases for your needs. To send us immediate feedback, please email us at purchasing@columbia.edu We are committed to obtaining the best value with each purchase, for there's more to purchasing than simply getting a good price. Because of our experience and expertise, we know the questions to ask and the key business terms that will enhance each contract. We work to ensure that vendors are scrupulous; products meet safety and health standards; guarantees are in place; and service contracts are appropriate. We anticipate hidden costs for shipping, delivery, insurance, installation, breakage and insurance. In short, it's our job to think of what you might never have thought of. We protect your purchase-you-and Columbia. Because of our the size of the University's buying power and strong reputation, we can award contracts to a Preferred Vendor list of top quality vendors. These contracts provide a range of value-added services and cost savings through leveraged buying. We want you to know who we are and to understand how we can serve you. Please call us with any questions regarding purchasing policies and procedures.
