Cleveland County Finance & Purchasing Department

Vendors

Cleveland County routinely seeks competitive quotes for the acquisition of supplies, services (such as repairs), and other items in accordance with North Carolina purchasing laws and County purchasing policies and procedures. Therefore, we request information on the types of products and services offered from each vendor with whom we do business.

If the County has not established your business as an existing vendor for payment purposes, you must review and complete applicable pages of our vendor package (PDF). Follow instructions and submit your request to Grants/Vendors Accountant (see address below) before the County places an order or requests services. All vendors and contractors should read the County's general terms and conditions (PDF). For a hardcopy vendor package, submit your request to the following address:

Please note that the County pays sales tax on all purchases of materials and supplies; in fact, the County is not exempt from paying sales tax in the State of North Carolina. Vendors must collect sales tax and remit sales tax to the State of North Carolina or other appropriate authority.

To help save County dollars, contractors and certain other vendors may complete a Contractor's Sales Tax Report (PDF) form as a method of passing along paid sales taxes to the County. The form should be completed and sent along with an invoice to the County. The County would be reimbursing the Contractor for paying such sales taxes and claiming payment of the sales taxes; thus, such sales taxes would not be considered as an expenditure against the project budget. Then, on its annual request for refund of sales taxes paid, the County would claim reimbursement from the State of NC for sales taxes paid by this Contractor.

For more information, contact either Grants/Vendors Accountant at 704-484-4808 or Kim Ogle, Purchasing Specialist at 704-484-4840 or the County Finance & Purchasing Department at 704-484-4802. Please feel free to contact us if you have any comments, concerns, issues, questions, suggestions, or thoughts regarding any of the services listed above.
