The university adheres to policies set forth by the State of Georgia and the Board of Regents, supplemented by KSU-specific procedures tailored to its operational needs. Key documents such as the KSU Purchasing Manual, Contract Review Process, and Procurement Decision Matrix offer detailed instructions for faculty and staff involved in procurement activities.
