The New Mexico Museum of Space History purchases a wide variety of products and services ranging from cars, trucks, and bookmobiles, to architectural services, and museum exhibits, to laboratory equipment, office supplies, and information technology support systems and services.

As an Agency of the State of New Mexico, the New Mexico Museum of Space History is subject to all laws governing state agencies. As a department of the executive branch of New Mexico state government, DCA’s purchases and contracts must ensure that each dollar is spent fairly and transparently in accordance with the New Mexico Procurement Code. It does so by working closely with and following the guidelines of the General Services Department and its State Purchasing Division and the Department of Finance and Administration and its Contract Review Bureau.

Through fair and open competition, the State Purchasing Division ensures compliance with the State Procurement Code for all purchases made by the executive branch agencies, as well as establishing state-wide pricing agreements for use by multiple State Agencies and other Governmental New Mexico entities.
