​​Clearer Path to Payment for Vendors

Attention Vendors & Suppliers! 

To improve efficiency and trust, starting October 1, 2025, invoices for all new purchases requires a Purchase Order (PO). This simple step makes payments smoother, helping you get paid faster once your invoice is submitted with a PO number. 

If you didn't get a PO, please get in touch with your contact person. 

4-Step Process:

Step 1: Government Issues Purchase Order (PO)

Step 2: Vendor Delivers Goods/Services

Step 3: Vendor Submits Invoice With PO# 

Step 4: Payment Processed

Why This Change?

Clear Approvals - Budget confirmed upfront 

Faster Payment - PO# links approval to invoice

Streamlined Process - Less back-and-forth 

Transparency & Trust - Clear reliable government payments
