Can I deliver goods and services to a County department before I receive a copy of the purchase order?

A. No, this is not a good idea. Delivering goods and services to the County without a copy of the purchase order actually delays the County’s ability to issues a purchase order and subsequent payment, as it violates County policy and causes additional paperwork to be generated, in order to document a “confirmation” purchase. In an emergency situation, it may be necessary for the County to receive goods and services quickly. In those instances, you should insist on getting “verbal emergency purchase order number” for reference purposes.
