Department Profile -

Purchasing

s you might guess, the
Purchasing Department is
mostly concerned with buying

things. It is responsible for both capital
and operational spending; they buy
what the College needs and try to pay
the lowest possible price for it. This
means finding suppliers for everything
from lab equipment to stationery.
Purchasing also maintains the College’s
photocopiers and does smaller tasks
like making bus reservations for field
trips.

The Purchasing Department is
located in Room 4840. The staff is
always available to answer questions
and invites inquiries about pricing,
budgeting, and requisition procedures.

Devona Davies, Purchasing
Supervisor

Devona supervises the day-to-day
operation of the Purchasing
Department. This means assigning jobs
to her staff as well as consulting with
people concerning the Department’s
procedures and policies. Her duties

include co-chairing the travel
committee and helping members of
other departments develop accurate
budget predictions. Her local is 5367.

Connie Frick, Buyer

Connie is responsible for both
purchasing the supplies the College
needs and for finding the suppliers with
the best prices. People wanting to know
how a requisition is progressing, or
how much a given item would cost,
should bring their questions to Connie.
Her local is 5441.

Barb Thompson, Purchasing Clerk
Barb’s primary responsibility is
processing approved requisitions and

matching invoices to their purchase
orders so that Douglas College’s
suppliers are paid promptly. Barb’s
secondary responsibility is maintenance
of the College’s photocopiers; if a
photocopier needs service or its copy
codes reset, Barb is the person to call.
Her local is 5451.
