How to Buy commonly needed items

Here is some info on some commonly purchased items.
Vendor names and phone numbers for some commonly purchased items.

Note that vendors listed with the SBE, MBE or WBE suffix are registered small, minority or woman owned businesses. As CCSU is committed to promoting utilization of set-aside (SBE), minority (MBE) and woman owned (WBE) business enterprises, we would like to encourage departments to use these businesses as much as possible.
