Preferred Purchasing Methods
- BearBuy is the preferred method to purchase goods and services for UCSF IT and Campus Departments.*
- Procurement Card (P-Card) is a University business credit card that enables the timely purchase of low-value goods or services.
*UCSF Health Departments do not typically use the BearBuy application; contact UCSF Health Procurement Services for guidance on purchasing.
Procurement Compliance Training
- Review the Procurement 101 training series to learn about important considerations, such as Contracts and Signature Authority, Conflict of Interest, HIPAA, and Competitive Bidding (>$100K). These trainings will help you understand purchasing policies, as well as your ethical responsibilities as a UC employee.
