Doing Business with MCOE
The MCOE procures, for its programs, using a centralized purchasing system. The MCOE aspires to maintain a mutually cooperative yet actively competitive attitude in order to obtain the best possible quality, price, and delivery. Large Merced County school districts purchase independently of the MCOE.
The MCOE warehouse maintains a STORES system, which includes filling orders for basic classroom supplies such as copy paper, pencils, construction paper, and various instructional supplies.
