For any purchase over $100,000, the College requires vendors to complete a vendor responsibility disclosure and for smaller purchases (above $15,000) the College requires vendors to complete a vendor responsibility determination questionnaire. This questionnaire looks at the financial ability, legal capacity, integrity and past performance of a business entity. The College follows the SUNY System anti-sweatshop policy.
