Purchasing

The purchasing department is responsible for identifying common goods and services used throughout Trumbull County and putting together formal and informal bid requests that will be awarded by the Trumbull County Commissioners.

For agencies and departments not under the County Commissioners Contracting and/or Appropriating Authority, a spirit of cooperation and coordination will be pursued. This will further benefit economy of scale discount levels being obtained through total quantity usage.

Mission Statement

The mission of the Purchasing Department is to provide cost effectiveness and accountability in the manner in which goods and services are acquired with public funds.

  2. To conserve public funds through reduction in cost and improvement in the quality of materials purchased.

  4. To promote a system of material consolidation and standardization throughout the County in order that better goods and services at a minimum cost may be secured for all agencies.
