Purchasing Policies & Procedures
This purchasing guide is designed to give
departments an overall understanding of the State of Idaho statutes and
the Purchasing Department rules, policies, and procedures that pertain
to purchasing.
*Deviating
from any of the policies and procedures put into place by LCSC and the
State of Idaho could jeopardize the College’s local purchasing
authority.
The College has a
delegated authority to purchase property and/or services expected to
cost $50,000 or less. Costs are determined as one-time purchases of
property or the total cost of a contract for services, including renewal
or extension periods, costing less than $50,000.

Department.
The College, in
compliance with Idaho Code 67-702 concerning Ethics in Government and
67-5726, concerning Prohibitions, and policies set forth by the Office
of the State Board of Education, prohibits purchases from State
employees.
