San Diego Unified School District's Procurement Card (PCard) program is designed to provide an efficient means of making routine purchases by reducing waiting time, allowing more purchasing responsibility and control at the school site and department level, and streamlining the requisitioning, purchasing and payment process for supply transactions.
San Diego Unified School District's (The District) PCards are widely accepted Visa credit cards. These are "corporate liability" cards and are intended to be the primary method used for routine, authorized business purchases within the cardholder's delegated authority limits, including taxes and shipping. The PCard program is meant to supplement purchasing mechanisms already in place, and is not intended as an overall replacement or as a means to circumvent purchasing guidelines, requirements, and policies and procedures established by San Diego Unified School District.
