Who is a delegated departmental purchaser?
A. A delegated departmental purchaser is someone designated by the department who will be making purchases for that particular department. ProCard users, as well as employees that process requisitions, are considered Delegated Departmental Purchasers. The department must have on file with the Purchasing Department a delegated departmental purchaser authorization (form can be found at http://www.uhv.edu/purchasing/Forms/authdpp.pdf) for each employee designated. Authorizations must be renewed annually. Each department purchaser is required to participate in training sessions annually on various purchasing topics.
