Procurement

HHMI Procurement department procures the goods and services needed for HHMI’s program and administrative functions in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

The department endeavors to obtain the best mix of price, quality, execution, and service and to avoid becoming too dependent on any one source of critical goods and services. Decisions are made about vendor qualification based on these criteria. HHMI does not discriminate in vendor selection on the basis of the race, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation of preference, or other similar characteristics of the owners or employees of the vendor.

The department periodically reviews its vendor relationships to determine whether the existing vendors continue to satisfy these overall objectives.

If you have questions regarding the Institute's procurement programs and the location of the nearest HHMI Office of Administrative Services (OAS), call (301) 215-8977.
