The Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District Purchasing Department is responsible for the management of the acquisition of all materials and services required to sustain the operations of the District in a timely, cost-effective manner.
Materials and services costing less than $50,000 are processed by requisitions. After approval, the Purchasing Department requests vendor quotations and issues the purchase order to the lowest and best quoter, or best delivery if a rush order.
Materials and services costing more than $50,000 are processed only after the Board of Trustees’ authorization. The Purchasing Department formally advertises for bids for materials or the user department issues a request for proposal for services. The bids are opened publicly, read out loud and summarized. The user department evaluates the bids or proposals, determines the lowest, best bid/proposal and submits a recommendation to the Board of Trustees for approval to award a contract. The Purchasing Department processes the award and issues a contract and purchase order when required.
If your company is interested in doing business with the District, register on the i-Supplier portal. Once you complete the registration the information of your company will be in our database and can be considered for future purchases of products/services.
