Supporting MiraCosta College
From everyday office supplies to multi-million-dollar construction bids, Purchasing and Material Management supports the full range of goods, services, contracts, and projects that keep MiraCosta College operating. Our team partners with departments across the District to ensure resources are procured and managed efficiently, ethically, and in compliance with applicable laws, Board policy, and District procedures.
From major construction projects to the daily delivery of mail, our team supports every department, division, and campus through purchasing, contracting, public bidding, asset and surplus property management, shipping and receiving, mail services, copy and printing services, and records management. Our work helps ensure the District has the resources needed to advance its mission, support student success, and serve the community.
