P-Card & Purchase Orders

The mission of P-Card and Purchase Orders is to provide efficient and responsive procurement services and to obtain high-quality goods and services from vendors who provide value to the institution. This service is provided to faculty and staff in support of the College's Mission and Vision Statement.

Our strategic goals are:

  1. To procure as efficiently as possible
  2. To provide continuous training and education to customers
  3. To provide knowledgeable information and consulting
  4. To identify vendors who meet internal customer needs and provide value to the institution
  5. To minimize disputes between internal customers and vendors
  6. To maintain ethical business standards

Administrative Services operates in a partially decentralized environment. Administrative Services is responsible for:

  • Sourcing and pricing goods or services for the campus community
  • Issuing and approving purchase orders to vendors
  • Administration of the College's Procurement Card (P-Card) Program
  • Continuous monitoring for the College's P-Card Program (internal audit)
  • Procuring furniture for the campus (capital construction and operational budgets)
  • Administering, in partnership with the Information Management Department, the College's Managed Print Program
