UW System campuses purchase goods and services through State Procurement. The State of Wisconsin is committed to the involvement of minority and veteran-owned business enterprises in the state's procurement program. UW-Platteville follows the State's purchasing policy which allows the campus to award contracts to certified minority or veteran-owned businesses who submit the lowest qualified bid when that qualified bid is not more than 5% more than the apparent low bid. This policy helps to create a diverse supplier base.
