In accordance with Section 7-7-23, Mississippi Code of 1972, Annotated, the State Fiscal Officer established a general rule to allow state agencies to make certain purchases without first issuing a purchase order. The various state agencies may make purchases under the Small Purchase Procurement Card Program established by the Office of Purchasing, Travel and Fleet Management provided, however, that all such purchases shall be made in compliance with the minimum policies and procedures established by the Office of Purchasing, Travel and Fleet Management. The Chief Procurement Officer or his/her designee of Office of Purchasing, Travel and Fleet Management shall have the authority to limit the ability of any agency to use the Small Purchase Procurement Card Program if it is determined that the agency is not in compliance with the policies and procedures. Policies, procedures, and guidelines on the Procurement Card Program can be found in the State Procurement Card Guidelines.
