Subject: <br /> <br />Purpose: <br /> <br />Policy' <br /> <br />Procedure <br /> <br />Emergency Purchase Orders <br /> <br />To define an emergency purchase order and how It should be handled. <br /> <br />"Emergency" is defined as 'a situation in which the department cannot continue to operate and/or <br />public safety is compromised" without an emergency purchase order being issued. <br /> <br />The department must submit an on-hne requisition marked "EMERGENCY" and an explanation of the <br />emergency purchase to the Purchasing Agent. All required documentation (i.e., bids, approvals, etc.) <br />should accompany the requisitaon. <br /> <br />After the Purchasing Agent reviews the purchase requisition and verifies that funds are available, the <br />requesting department will be notified and gaven a purchase order number as quickly as possible. <br /> <br />For weekend, holiday and overnight purchases requiring a purchase order, the department should make <br />the purchase and contact the Purchasing Agent the next working day with documentation in order that a <br />purchase order can be issued. <br /> <br /> <br />
