C.R.S.
Section 24-102-207
Statewide procurement card agreement
- definition
(1)
The department shall establish a statewide procurement card program. All governmental bodies that utilize a procurement card shall participate in the statewide program. For purposes of this section, “governmental body” has the same meaning as set forth in section 24-101-301 (18); except that, for purposes of this section, “governmental body” also includes elected officials.(2)
Governmental bodies that are not subject to the “Procurement Code”, articles 101 to 112 of this title 24, or the fiscal rules are subject to this section; except that, on and after December 1, 2010, this section does not apply to an institution of higher education that has elected to be excluded from the meaning of “governmental body” pursuant to section 24-101-301 (18).(3)
The statewide procurement card shall be considered an alternate method of payment and shall not be considered a commitment voucher required by section 24-30-202 (1). Any revenues resulting from the procurement card program shall be deposited as cash revenue in the general fund and shall be subject to annual appropriation by the general assembly. Unless otherwise directed by the general assembly, the state controller shall make adjustments equivalent to such revenues in the form of a reduction of administrative costs allocated to governmental bodies on a basis proportional to each governmental body’s contribution to statewide procurement card expenditures, as determined by the state controller, to ensure that the federal government receives its share of procurement card revenues as required by federal regulations and to ensure that the indirect obligations are funded. Institutions of higher education that elect to be excluded from the meaning of “governmental body” pursuant to section 24-101-301 (18) shall transfer money to the department of higher education or the Colorado commission on higher education to the extent required to pay indirect cost assessments, as defined in section 24-75-112 (1)(f). For purposes of this subsection (3) the term “allocated” does not mean an appropriation or cash transfer to any governmental body, but refers to an internal process within the office of the state controller.
