  Purchasing

  Purchasing is the division within the Department of Audit & Control responsible for assisting the operating departments of the Town with the purchase of goods and services needed for the Town to carry out its duties and functions. 

  Purchasing oversees the preparation of bid documents and then issues public bid notices, receives the sealed bids, holds public bid openings, and once opened verifies that bids conform to documented requirements to assure that Huntington is, throughout the acquisition process, in compliance with federal, state and local law and Purchasing Policy as adopted by the Town Board.
