7-BPS Procurement Policy Links.pdf

This document is a procurement policy reference guide from the Buffalo Public Schools (BPS) district in New York, containing links to four key purchasing policies that govern procurement activities within the district. The policies referenced include the general Purchasing Policy (5410), Alternative Formats for Instructional Materials (5412), Procurement procedures under Uniform Grant Guidance for Federal Awards (5413), and Minority and/or Women Owned Business Enterprises guidelines (5414). These policies establish the framework and procedures that the district follows when conducting procurements, including the current solicitation for glycol inventory for district-wide use with delivery to up to three locations throughout the district.

The document serves as a procedural roadmap for vendors and bidders seeking to do business with Buffalo Public Schools. By referencing these four specific policies, the district indicates its commitment to compliance with federal grant guidance requirements, support for minority and women-owned business enterprises, and adherence to uniform purchasing standards. Interested bidders should review these linked policies to understand the procurement requirements, evaluation criteria, and any set-asides or preferences that may apply to the glycol supply contract and other district purchasing opportunities.
