MSBO, in conjunction with MASB and MASA, is proud to be able to offer school districts throughout Michigan the opportunity to save money through a special “purchasing card” program. Districts using traditional credit cards as well as those who don’t, are encouraged to look into this no cost, high-benefit program.
The Michigan Purchasing Card Program, which started in 2005, has grown to include more than 125 school districts with $30 million in annual purchases. Participating districts are projected to receive more than $100,000 in rebates for 2007.
In addition to saving money, school districts in the program save time and gain greater control of expenditures. As the program grows, so does the size of the rebates distributed to participating districts. These districts also save money (minimum of $1,200) in annual fees for a total of more than $150,000 in savings.
