Humber Financial Services is pleased to announce an update to Humber College’s Purchasing Policy and Procedures (PP&P).

The update includes the introduction of Social Procurement, clarity around Vendor of Record usage, PCard guidelines, revisions to the Purchasing Thresholds and much more.

Effective immediately, three (3) quotes will be required for goods and non-consultant services greater than $20,000 (previously $5,000) and up to $100,000 (before taxes).

To support the changes, we are releasing two training programs on the Broader Public Sector (BPS) Directive and PP&P.

The BPS Training will give leaders and managers an overview of the legislated set of requirements to ensure that BPS organizations who acquire publicly funded goods and services go through a process that is open, fair and transparent.

The PP&P Training will give departmental managers and requisitioners an overview of the revisions and key points on the new Purchasing Policy and Procedure.

Staff required to complete the training will receive an email invite from GO1 (from Humber College <noreply@mygo1.com>) for each of the two training programs.  The email will contain a quick link to the training program.
