PROCUREMENT GUIDELINESHOW TO BUYThe University uses various methods to acquire goods and services. If the requestor’s needs can be met through items available in Show Me Shop then this method should be used as the most totally cost effective method. If the requestor’s product requirements are not available in Show Me Shop then they should use their procurement card as the second most efficient method for making purchases. If neither Show Me Shop nor the P-card are appropriate tools for satisfying the requestor’s need then an electronic non-catalog purchase requisition should be used. Good faith effort must be given to using the most efficient purchasing method available for a given purchasing event. Please reference the Payment Method for Expenditures - Quick Reference Guide for a summary list of various items/services and the appropriate procurement method to utilize for each. http://procurement.mst.edu/documents/APPO.pdfSHOW ME SHOP (SMS) is the preferred method for purchases made by campus departments.
