The policy, guidelines or directive governing inclusive and local purchasing:

All bids are evaluated based on pricing in order to stay in compliance with ICCB procurement guidelines. However, in the event of tie bids, preferences will be given to persons or firms located within the confines of the college district if they are recognized as qualified and can provide the needed services of materials on a substantially equal basis with persons located outside of the college district.

Requests for Proposals (RFP), on the other hand, are evaluated by a number of factors. In many cases, proximity to the college is listed as evaluation criteria, especially when services are involved.
