University policy states that purchases shall not be made from non-contracted suppliers when a University Price Contract supplier exists for similar commodities or services. However, if a contracted vendor does not exist for a particular commodity or service, the purchases made from non-contracted vendors are allowable.

The Purchasing Division may consider authorization for a higher transaction limit when requested by a cardholder and approved by the appropriate Director, Dean, Chancellor or Vice President. In addition, the Purchasing Division will conduct a review and audit of cardholder purchases prior to approving any increase in the cardholder's transaction limit.
