The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Office of Acquisition Management (OAQ) has a need for a commercial off the shelf (COTS) Automated Purchase Card Approval System. The solution must provide an automated, paperless purchase card approval processing system with customizable options.
DHS Purchase Card Policy requires cardholders to complete a purchase card worksheet prior to placing an order. The process is manual and often labor intensive, leading to unnecessary administrative cost. This requirement is intended to reduce the manual effort, using an automated processing solution that provides paperless approvals, routing, policy compliance, and audit readiness capabilities.
With an automated purchase card worksheet solution, the purchase card program can efficiently manage cost, streamline audit requirements, and provide stakeholders with additional oversight over the program. An automated solution will be used to assist with mitigating risks associated with the program.
