112 | 2021 An n u al Repor t
The Office of Procurement continues to provide services while practicing health and safety precautions due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (?COVID-19?) pandemic. The Office of Procurement is committed to providing supplies, issuing procurement publications, and executing contracts; providing for the fair and equitable treatment of all persons involved in public procurement by the Judiciary; to maximize the purchasing value of public funds in procurement good and services; and providing safeguards for maintaining a procurement system of quality and integrity. The Office of Procurement responded to the coronavirus pandemic by remaining flexible and taking advantage of available technology. Beginning on October 01, 2021, the Judiciary began utilizing Tyler Technologies MUNIS Software (?MUNIS?) for financials and procurement. Procurement using the MUNIS system streamlines the procurement life cycle from requisition to purchase, with an e-purchasing module to handle purchases, contracts, reviews and requests. It reduces costs and ensures compliance, accountability, and audit readiness.
