About

As a state agency, there are a lot of rules around purchasing. In general, if you follow the basics of don’t purchase anything over $5k and don’t sign anything, you are generally in good shape. With IT purchases, we take that a few steps further. Regardless of the cost, here is the breakdown of when to purchase through IR and when you can purchase an IT item locally:

Purchase Locally Purchase through IR

  • Digital cameras
  • Other (non-network) electronic equipment
