About the Purchasing Department
The Purchasing Department procures all good and services used by the town and the public school system. The Purchasing Department mission is "To obtain the best value proposition - quality, cost, and delivery - for all products and services purchased." Bid information may be accessed online as part of our effort to provide suppliers with equal and timely access to information.

In addition to participating in and supporting all town and school building committees, the Purchasing Department purchases all electricity, heating, and vehicle fuels used by the town and school facilities, and bids and buys all products needed for numerous facility improvement projects, such as boiler replacements, façade rehabilitation, and roofing and window replacement; bridge repairs and replacement; and special projects that arise due to storms and natural disasters. Some non-construction projects include finding new scheduling and information systems for revenue/tax billing and collection, student information, and public safety.
