The implementation of NIS Procurement has resulted in many questions regarding the dollar level at which procurement documents must be entered in to NIS through the Procurement system. A non-contract purchase totalling less than $500.00 can be processed at the time of invoice payment without the requirement to enter and receive against a Purchase Order. It will be the agencies' responsibility to ensure that they are in compliance with state statutes, executive orders, and any other legislation.

The NIS Procurement system will be available for end users who want to enter procurement documents less than $500. It will be up to each agency to develop internal policies.
