Indirect Procurement Policy

Organizations can apply the guidelines outlined in this document for the procurement of indirect services and goods. This policy discusses indirect expenses, capital services and goods purchases; requisition submittal and approval; requisition requirements; and expensed/capital purchase orders.

According to this policy, this process should apply to all locations and employees worldwide, and most company purchases should be made through the company's procurement department. Employees create purchase requisitions, which, once approved per the commitment and expenditure authority policy, authorize buyers to create purchase orders (POs) for expensed and capital services and goods required to maintain the operation of the company adequately.
