Greetings UMBC Faculty and Staff:
Thank you to everyone who attended and supported our Open House! Your participation made the event a great success, and we truly appreciate the sense of community and engagement.
A special thank you to our partners in Auxiliaries, Athletics, and the Bookstore for their invaluable support in creating a welcoming experience. Your collaboration played a key role in making this event possible.
We are grateful for your continued partnership and look forward to more opportunities to connect in the future.
The Department of Procurement and Strategic Sourcing is committed to successfully acquiring goods and services that deliver value and support the needs of the University. This Procurement Staff Alignment Responsibility Sheet is designed to enhance collaboration and efficiency by clearly defining each team member’s assigned divisions and departments. By aligning procurement staff with divisions, departments, and colleges, we strengthen partnerships and streamline processes. This approach ensures responsive and tailored support for all procurement needs.
Each department is paired with dedicated procurement staff to provide support throughout the entire procurement process.
If your designated procurement representative is out of the office, please submit your inquiry through the RT link
Together, we will drive excellence in procurement through teamwork and strategic sourcing!
