Procurement Matrix
 

 
 

There are a number of different methods that University departments may use to procure goods and services. The appropriate method for particular types of purchases varies according to the type of item being purchased, as well as the amount of the purchase, and certain other circumstances surrounding the purchase. The Villanova Procurement Matrix was created to enable departments to determine the appropriate method of procurement for a particular good or service.  Please refer to the Methods of Procurement Policy for Additional information.
