Purchasing Card Program
Texas A&M University-Commerce Department of Purchasing
The Purchasing Card Program is a fast, flexible purchasing method for processing delegated orders from vendors that accept credit cards. The purpose of the Purchasing Card program is to establish a more efficient, cost-effective method of handling delegated purchasing and the related payment procedures.
Used to its potential, the program will result in a significant reduction in the data entry of small orders, receiving, invoices and vouchers, and reduction in related documentation, including invoices and checks.
