Augsburg University belongs to several purchasing consortia. These organizations have searched, vetted, and contracted with many vendors to provide us better pricing on a wide variety of goods and services needed by the University. Feel free to contact Manager, Purchasing and Central Services, if you need a source for a purchase.  You can also take a look at the variety available through the web sites of these five consortia:
ACTC (Associated Colleges of the Twin Cities)
E&I
US Communities
NJPA
State of Minnesota Cooperative Purchasing Venture for a list of categories.
