  • TYPE OF DOCUMENT: POL - Policies/Procedures
The document is a purchasing policy and procedure manual for Montgomery County. It provides guidelines and procedures for various purchasing scenarios based on the dollar amount of the purchase. For purchases up to $1000, departments can directly handle the procurement using small purchase procedures or an AMEX card. For purchases between $1000 and $5000, departments need to submit a Request for Purchase form to the Purchasing Department, which will then solicit three sources by phone or in writing and issue a large purchase order. For purchases over $5000, the Purchasing Department will advertise and post a solicitation, issue a sealed Invitation For Bid (IFB) or Sealed Request For Proposal (RFP), evaluate the results, and issue a Notice of Award or Contract. The document also outlines the authority and responsibility of the Purchasing Department, compliance with the Virginia Public Procurement Act (VPPA) and County Policy, and provides information on small and large purchase orders, training, forms, vendor visits, resolution of purchasing problems, and suggestions for improvement.
