SCCSD Board Approves Multiple Purchases and Personnel Matters
The Syracuse City School District (SCCSD) Board has recently approved a range of significant purchases and personnel matters, demonstrating their commitment to enhancing district operations and supporting students.
In a move to streamline procurement, the district continues to use the Onondaga County Division of Purchase to manage bids for various services. This centralized process aims to simplify and standardize purchases while encouraging diversity and inclusion with Minority and Women-owned Businesses (M/WBE) participation goals set at 30%.
- For those seeking to do business with SCCSD, registration can be completed on the BidNet Direct website or through the city of Syracuse’s website for specific services such as construction and healthcare.
- Vendors must submit a completed IRS Form W-9 and comply with labor and safety regulations, including the New York Workers Compensation Law and child labor laws.
Another key aspect is the emphasis on quality control, as materials furnished must meet specific standards and are subject to inspection and approval upon delivery. Any substitutions or price increases require prior authorization from the purchasing agent, ensuring that the district receives the goods and services as outlined in their agreements.
