How NCMW Processes Purchase Orders

NCMW does not accept Purchase Orders as a form of payment.

Purchase Orders are processed by NCMW for vendor creation and signature approval. Submit your organization's purchase order through the Request Assistance Form. 

 

Once a purchase order is fully executed, NCMW will issue an invoice to the requestor for the goods or services outlined on the P.O.  The requestor is responsible for ensuring payment is remitted within the invoice remittance term period--30 days.

What is a purchase order? 

A purchase order (P.O.) is a formal, legally binding document issued by a buyer (Instructor/Coordinator/Organization) to a seller (NCMW) to request goods or services at a specific price and on agreed upon terms. It details the items, quantities, prices, and delivery information for a purchase, becoming a contract once the seller accepts it.

Purchase orders serve as a legal record, aid in order tracking, and support procurement compliance, functioning as a request for purchase before the supplier sends an invoice for payment.
