About the Department
The Department of Purchasing and Contracting operates as an internal service fund (ISF), purchasing all goods, materials and services for the County of San Diego, as provided for in the County Charter. The department is also responsible for the centralized reutilization and disposal of surplus equipment and salvage materials.
The department ensures the competitive process is utilized for best price and highest quality while conforming to purchasing regulations and emphasizing excellent customer service practices. An ISF operates on a business-like model directly billing customer departments for the cost of services. Additionally, Purchasing and Contracting is responsible for the Countywide content and records management programs.
Please Note
Purchasing and Contracting is providing a series of Procurement Outreach Workshops for Small Business: Doing Business With the County of San Diego.
The department also publishes a Guide to Managed Competition, along with several attachments, on the FAQ page on this site.
