Purchasing Procedures : Doing Business with the City of Aiken

Individual City departments can contract for goods and services under $10,000. However, formal bids are required for larger purchases. Aiken’s decentralized purchasing system tries to keep small bids from becoming slow and bureaucratic, while at the same time ensuring oversight and deliberation for large, publicly-funded bid awards.
