procurement card

Some new and updated finance training classes are available from the Division of Financial Affairs (DFA) and other departments, from September 2019 through June 2020, including the Accounting and Procurement certificate programs.

Procurement and Payment Services working cooperatively with University Audit has updated information in the Credit Card Programs section of the Buying Manual related to inactive credit cards.

Several sections of the Buying Manual were updated effective October 1, 2017.

In September 2016, our new Vice President for Financial Affairs, Gerald Hector asked us to review the procurement process. We documented the procure-to-pay process from the need for a good or service through the entire process for ordering and paying the supplier or service provider.

Two minor changes have been made to the Buying Manual.

The University Policy Office announced the issuance of the revised University Policy 3.2, Travel Expenses, effective January 1, 2016. The revised policy increased direct-pay options.

In conjunction with the BSC directors, Procurement Services is pleased to announce that the process for procuring catering, event space rental, and small services has been simplified.
