Procurement Card (PCard) Program
Accounts payable administers the SDSU Research Foundation’s Procurement Card (PCard) Program. The PCard is a procurement tool that provides an efficient means of making routine purchases by reducing paperwork and wait time. It allows for more purchasing responsibility and control at the department and project level, and streamlines the purchasing cycle for frequent and routine purchases.
