3. PURCHASING DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT 3 To support the educational goals of the Edgewood Independent School District by acquiring the necessary resources through prudent purchasing practices and excellent customer service.

4. Purchasing Function The Purchasing function is decentralized; this means the schools and departments determine what they need and when they need it. The final commitment of District funds can only occur by the Purchasing Department. The purchasing department shall oversee and approve the purchase of all materials, supplies, equipment, and services for the District. 4

5. Purchasing Ethics State law and applicable Board policy prohibits the following type of purchases listed below: Sequential Purchases – District employees shall not make purchases of items, over a period of time, that in normal purchasing practices would be made in one purchase. Component Purchases – District employees shall not make purchases of the component parts of an item that in normal purchasing practices would be made in one purchase. Separate Purchases – District employees shall not make purchases separately in order to circumvent board approval of items that in normal purchasing practices would be made in one purchase. * Separate, sequential, and component purchases are illegal and can subject a district official to possible criminal prosecution as a Class B misdemeanor, an offense involving moral turpitude. 5

6. Things to Know One thing to remember is that you always need to get an approved Purchase Order before you buy anything. Purchases without an approved Purchase Order are not allowed The District has the option of not paying for materials and supplies if a Purchase Order was not approved Validation Memos can only be used for emergency. This year the Business Office we will be monitoring the number of Validations being used by Department and Schools Open PO’s are allowed but can only be obtained for one month 6

7. Thing To Know Continued The District does not allow: A. Cash to be used as rewards or incentives for students. B. Gift cards as incentives for students to retailers who sell alcohol, tobacco, etc… C. The district does not allow raffles Items A, B, C above also pertains to Student Activity funds. The District is phasing out desktop printers. Ordering of ink cartridges is no longer allowed. Any exception will be evaluated on a case by case basis. It is the responsibility of the originator/requestor of the requisition to send a copy of the Purchase Order to the vendor. Purchasing does not send PO’s to the Vendors. On the requisition when buying from a Co-op Vendor please indicate in the “Bid Nbr:” _____ field the contract number related to the Co-op Vendor. (Examples: Region 20 #5027 or Buy Board #520-13) When using the District credit card you are still required to get a Purchase Order for the purchase. You are not allowed to solicit or receive gifts of any kind from any Vendor 7

9. Requistion Number and Purchase Order Number – There is a distinct difference between a 6 digit Requisition number and a 6 digit Purchase Order number. 1.Requisition number: Is a 6 digit number that begins with a 06 (Example: 060216). Next year the requisition number will start with 07xxxx – The requisition number is assigned by TxEIS when you complete inputting you requisition and you click on “submit” – A requisition has not been approved by Purchasing until it goes through the approval path 2. Purchase Order number: Is a 6 digit number beginning with a 19 (Example: 196985). Next year PO’s will start with 20xxx – A PO number is assigned when it has gone through the entire approval process 9

10. Texas Education Agency Section 3.2.2.4 Vendor Gifts School district employees cannot accept anything of value from a vendor such as personal gifts or gratuities, which may be construed to have been given to influence the purchasing process. This includes – – Money – Meals – Trips – Tickets for Entertainment – Gifts of Any Value Note: “Gifts to a Public Servant” is a Class A misdemeanor offense if the recipient is a government employee who exercises some influence in the purchasing process of the governmental body. 10

11. When the 6 digit Purchase Order number is assigned, the originator will receive an automated message from TxEIS in your outlook e-mail inbox. 11

12. Vendor Information W-9 Form A W-9 Form is required for all New Vendors. We use the W-9 to set up Vendors on our Vendor Master File. If a vendor has a change of address or a legal change in name then an updated W-9 is needed. The W-9 Form is on the EISD website under >Departments >Purchasing>Vendor Information>Vendor Documents. 12

13.
