Business Support Services oversees the administration, acquisition, and management of all contracts for DMUSD.  Contracts fall into two major categories: Goods & Services and Public Works.

When procuring goods and contracting for services (non-public works), the district must follow certain codes and board policies that dictate the type of action needed.  If the district plans to spend over the bidding threshold set by the California Department of Education (CDE) in any given category, the district must go to bid or utilize piggyback contract to procure the items or obtain specific types of services.

All service contracts and agreements regardless of the contract amount must be approved and signed by DMUSD authorized signer and are subject to Board Approval. This includes services for staff development, maintenance, professional services (such as legal, architectural, occupational therapy, etc.), school performances, assemblies and workshops.
