1 SCIRE PURCHASING AND ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND SUMMARY The goals of the purchasing function at SCIRE are to achieve open, competitive and costeffective buying, while adhering to external funding sources for bidding, documentation and reporting and timely payment to vendors for goods and services purchased. Disbursements, including checks, wire transfers and electronic funds transfer transactions are processed by the Accounts Payable section in the SCIRE administrative office. All payments require approval by the appropriate PI or staff that has authority over the projects being charged. PI, staff and SCIRE employees may not procure goods or services for personal benefit through SCIRE channels, regardless of whether SCIRE is reimbursed for such purchases.
