Introduction
• The purpose of the Purchasing Card program is to establish a more
efficient, cost-effective method of making small dollar purchases. The
program is meant to reduce the time between identifying a need and
delivery of the goods. Whenever possible, a card holder should make
every effort to purchase from University vendors or preferred suppliers
where a contractual relationship exists on behalf of the University. If a
particular product or service is not available through the University or a
contracted vendor, the card holder may choose a qualified supplier.
• A list of preferred vendors can be found
