We get lots of questions on procurement; for example, "What are the requirements for competition and price comparisons?” "Can I do a sole-source procurement?" "What should be included in our procurement policies and procedures?" We also get questions dealing with the use of credit cards and purchase orders.
In fact, there is so much to cover that we present our Procurement Best Practices webinar in two parts.
Part 1 includes:
• What is required to be in writing
• Competition requirements
• Price and cost comparisons
• Sole-sourced procurements
Part 2 includes:
• Spending limits, approvals, and documentation of decisions
• Use of purchase orders
• Use of credit cards
• Accounts payable management
• New vendor approval and setup
• Approval and coding of invoices
• Accounts payable processing scheduling and cash drawdowns
Internal controls will be highlighted throughout the sessions, and we'll give you lots of examples. There will also be time for your questions. Plan to join us for these sessions to learn practical procurement methods that follow the regulations.
