The Procurement Card is designed to make the purchase of small dollar items easier.  Small dollar items are those that cost $500 or less and for which need will not exceed $1,000 in any calendar month. The intent of the program is to replace the use of purchase orders for small-dollar items and provide a simple mechanism for prepaying certain expenses, such as registrations or subscriptions. The card does have certain restrictions. Consult the Purchasing Handbook, Appendix B for a complete list.

Training sessions on the use and management of the card are mandatory.

Online training is available. For further information about training, visit the Professional Development website.
