As we are rapidly approaching the end of another fiscal year, below is a reminder to help facilitate end-of-year spending. Please note the following dates:
Last date for all major purchases: April 7, 2023
Purchases for office furniture, equipment, materials or supplies that have longer lead times should be placed in order to ensure timely delivery of order. Please be aware in case of longer lead times or backorders, you may not receive your order by the June 30 deadline. In this case, you may have to pay out of FY24 funds.
An online requisition must be done and approved by corresponding budget manager(s), with correct account number(s), and forwarded to LLCC Purchasing.
Last date purchase orders will be issued: May 18, 2023
This will be the last day a purchase order will be used to order anything.
An online requisition must be completed prior to this date which includes approval by corresponding budget manager(s), with correct account number(s) and forwarded to LLCC Purchasing by the above date.
That also means your budget transfer(s) should have already been submitted to LLCC Budgeting, should there be a need to do that.
Last date to order items on a blanket purchase order: May 18, 2023
This includes Office Depot/Staples blankets.
Last date to process payments on a blanket purchase order: June 8, 2023
All supporting documentation, invoices and blanket purchase order payment requests must be approved by corresponding budget manager(s) and submitted to LLCC Accounts Payable by 5 p.m. on June 8.
Only emergency purchases will be allowed after the above dates.
As such, they must have the appropriate approvals.
Purchases will require written approval from your appropriate cabinet member prior to the purchase.
Due to audit cut off dates, unless such purchases are received on campus by June 30 the purchase will be charged to your FY 24 budget.
Grant purchases: above dates apply to grants ending June 30, 2023
For those grants that do not end on June 30, 2023, please work closely with Sarah Goodman and Jeremy Bliss in the LLCC Purchasing office to facilitate your purchases.
