Preferred Suppliers

Baylor’s Procurement Policy requires that all purchases exceeding $25,000 be made with suppliers who are under contract with the University or have been awarded through a competitive bidding process. Suppliers holding these competitively bid contracts are referred to as Preferred Suppliers. The table below lists all current Preferred Suppliers.

The University procures a wide range of goods and services, but not all are yet covered by preferred supplier contracts. The provided list shows the goods and services that should be purchased from these required suppliers whenever possible. The easiest way to ensure policy compliance is by placing orders through Ignite, Baylor’s financial management system.

If a Preferred Supplier cannot fulfill the requirements for a specific good or service, a non-preferred supplier may be used. For assistance with selecting the most appropriate supplier, or performing a bid process, contact Procurement Services.
