PURCHASING AND ACQUISTIONS
CH-R (LOCAL)

PURCHASE REQUISITIONS

Associate Superintendents will have approval authority for requisitions up to $24,999.  Requisitions for $25,000 or more for items not on bid or previously approved by the Board are to be approved by the Superintendent.  Otherwise, requisitions will flow from the Associate Superintendent to Purchasing.

NON STANDARD REQUISITIONS

Associate Superintendents will have signature authority for non standard requisitions up to $24,999. Non-standard requisitions for $25,000 or more for items not on bid or previously approved by the Board are to be approved by the Superintendent. Since non-standard requisitions bypass the purchasing department, requisitions for items not on bid or previously approved by the Board over $10,000 must have 3 written quotes attached or a copy of the sole source documentation.  For non-standard requisitions over $10,000 that do not have the appropriate backup documentation and the items are not on bid or previously approved by the Board, accounts payable will make copies of the requisition and forward it to purchasing for information purposes.  These requisitions will then be reviewed at a later time with the Superintendent and the Deputy Superintendents to discuss compliance with state bid laws.
