Small Order
Orders totaling $4,999 or less can be placed by the AU department/Unit that needs the goods. At this dollar level, where allowable by Purchasing Card policy, most orders are placed using the AU Purchasing Card.
Orders for $5,000 - $14,999 must be initiated by the AU Department/Unit processing a Purchase Requisition. Buyers within PBS can, at their discretion, use informal or formal quotes and will most often place the order by issuing a Purchase Order.
