Who can authorize a PCard Application?

Due to the liability associated with the PCard, extra measures have been taken to reassure all departments that the Procurement Card Program will only release PCards to those applicants who have been approved by a departmental level authority (ie: Chairperson, Dean or Administrative Officer). CAUTION: An unauthorized or inappropriate signature may delay the processing of a PCard application.

Appropriate PCARD Approval Structure

The Procurement Card office may review department Cardholder and Card Manager approval structures. Departments may be asked to provide information regarding their organizational structure for documentation of these existing relationships. Changes may be recommended and/or required. Departments will be given proper notification and assistance if changes are required.
